I am set on all but speakers, need advice on those

Hi,
I need advice on the speakers, there are a lot of similar questions out there, but it looks like I am all set for now on all for the next 7 years except the speakers.
This is analog listening, on the front I have Oracle Paris TT, Ortofon RS-212D and Sumiko MDC 800 arms, Orotofon Windfeld and Grado Amber Tribute carts, CJ PV12 with Phono stage and good tubes and capacitors, CJ MV-60SE amp. I want to know how much I should spend on the speakers so that ROI will be reasonable. Would that be 1.5K, 5K? (used of course). I mostly listen to classical incl symphony, chamber, piano, violin solo.
Using cable analogy I guess I would prefer 'copper' sound to 'silver', the musicality is the most important for me rather than 'definition'. When I started 14 months ago I got myself used Audes (from Estonia) for $600 just to start somewhere, now need to round it up and relax for sometime. I was looking at used Sonus Faber GPH but then thought may be I should spend more. Appreciate your folks input
Thank you
Anatoliy

I think for your tastes, Sonus Faber is a very good choice. You might look into their TOY model, and if you want more bass, their TOY tower. If you can find them used, the Liuto is a great option. Another option is PSB Synchrony B monitors, or Imagine T towers. Both nicely musical and under your price range.

Why 7 years? Why not 6 or 8? I like you amp and preamp and liked them both. (Especially the amp). What have you heard so far that you like?

Sorry, but I forgot to ask about the price. It looks like you are trying to fit into a certain price range as opposed to finding a speaker that works well with your equipment. Personally, I find quite often, that price is not all that relevant when choosing equipment.
