Looking for new speakers

Please keep your responses coming, I'm adding all of them to my research. All of your information is helping me. 

Thanks

I have just moved into my new space. The living room/listening room dimensions are 30' long by 14' wide with 9' ceilings.  After reading your suggestions and doing some research, with a $3000 a pair budget plus or minus a little. I need bass nothing thundering just clear represtation of the recording, mids and highs are probably more important to me. These are the speakers I'm looking at:

Goldenear Triton 3+
Vandersteen 2ce signature II
Definitive Technology Mythos ST-L
SVS Ultra Towers

If you have anymore suggestions about this list please let me know. 

Thanks

What are your thoughts on the SVS ULTRA TOWERS?

There is a pair of Emerald Physics KCII's new listed for sale on AudiogoN for $1499.  I'm very tempted. Any suggestions?

One problem I'm having is the ability to audition some of the speakers I've mentioned in the list. There are no dealers near me that carry Vandersteen or Emerald Physics. I'm really interested in the Emerald Physics. Does anyone have recommendations for me.

I've made my decision, just ordered a pair of Emerald Physics KCII PROS.
