Mini-monitors $5,000 - $10,000
Dynaudio C1 
upgrade from Mini Dancer 2 DMD $5-10k
With that room, I would look for either bigger Usher or Dynaudio c4 or s5.4 
7 months in and still loving these...
How do they sound comparing to the C1 you had in the past? 
upgrade from Mini Dancer 2 DMD $5-10k
I actually have both the Usher MD2 and Dynaudio c1 signature and I prefer the Dynaudio C1 more. The C1 offer more liquid vocal and sweeter treble. I'm using a Rel sub to fill the low freq below 36hz. The MD2 is now used in my home theater setup.Yo... 
upgrade from Mini Dancer 2 DMD $5-10k
C2 might not have the bass you are looking for though. 
upgrade from Mini Dancer 2 DMD $5-10k
A friend of mine upgraded from the md2 to the dynaudio c4 mk 2 second hand. He no longer has the bass issue :) 
opinions on mcintosh 275 V
I had it pair with Eastern Electric Minimax preamp and they sound great! I used Black Treasures KT88 and Telefunken 12ax7 on v1 position. 
triode versus pentode
I have the Ayon Triton int amp. For jazz and vocal, I prefer triode mode for romantic presentation. For rock or hip hop, I prefer pentode mode which has better bass slam and grunt.
