Another Speaker Recommendation Request


Greetings Goners,
Just retired and have my new dedicated listening room. Bonus room above garage; 15' wide, 24' deep, 8' ceiling, drywall and carpeted. No WAF to consider. I am all digital with PS Audio kit: BHK stereo 250 amp, BHK pre-amp, Direct Stream DAC and Direct Stream Media Player. Also have Cambridge Audio CXN for streaming and NAS.
Current speakers are Wharfedale Jade 3 stand mounts with HSU subwoofer. Worked well in the previous home, but looking to upgrade. I don't need concert hall performance. I will crank it up on occasion, but mostly solo mid and low level listening. Would like full range floor standers and possibly loss the subwoofer.
Most important attributes for me would be non-fatiguing and imaging. Looking in the $10k range and prefer new vs used. Have considered Spendor D7, PSB Imagine T3 and Focal Electra 1028BE. And shops to demo in Tampa St. Pete area would be appreciated. Thanks!

I heard the Chapman T-5 at the RMAF. I wasn't the only one to be sucked in to the music. Speakers you can love.....
I have never used room treatments. I have huge a couple of area rugs on a wall or two to eliminate the " clap " affect. With speaker that doesn't double in the bass you should be fine. Those Chapman's use a transmission line which really makes for an accurate and deep bass and should not be a problem. 
I am guessing the Spendor would be good and the ProAc.
