Carlo have you heard Norh speakers,they are good.
Norh.com is their website.They have synthetic
marble 6.9 speakers for less than $1k, In my
opinion, I like them better than the totem model
1, and NO5,and to some Proac speakers less than 2k.
I own one.Even though they are in Thailand, their
service is better than the dealer accross the street.
Castle Conway's, also at Audio Advisor. price is about $1000 , was $2000. Thin floor standing. Very well reviewed in Hi Fi Choice and elsewhere( Hi Fi News I believe) and , I think , good looking. Stan
I will do some research on the recommended speakers
thanks to everyone for their opinion
