Martin Logan have a new line, 

UK speakers: PMC are mostly good 

I thoroughly enjoyed my Twenty26 and Elac 247.2. Today I have MB2SE but these are beyond your budget.

If you consider used…Wilson’s are an option.

On the Used market for around $14k you can get Wilson Benesch in Discovery that will fall in your price range, big thumbs up for a 2.5 that provides bass.

If you are in Toronto and your budget is $USD15K then I would recommend demoing the Yamaha NS5000 at Kennedy HiFi.. You room maybe too small for these "bookshelf" speakers, but you did say your room opens up. I have these in a  room that is 20 x (12 - 15) x 25+. The height saves me and my room opens up on one side.

Whatever you decide sort out the room first.
