Help me find WARM speakers a la Sonus Faber

Sonus Faber Olympica III's are my dream speakers. I love how they sound, but they are out of my price range. I need to stay at 10 or under. Can you guys recommend some alternatives. A local dealer recommended Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Grand, but they are not available for demo unfortunately. Thank you in advance.
I am using a MC275 and c2300 with sota sapphire (grade reference series sonata cartridge). My listening room is very big.

One other slight problem with the Cremona or Olympica's is that they come a stand (rake) that is pretty wide, and I do not know if I can purchase an alternative stand, or if I can ply them off of the stand.

Magico used s3 or S5.

The Verity line is just musical. I've owned several pairs. I've worked for a few dealers and when the opportunity came up to upgrade for free to a Wilson or Magico, I've always held onto the Verity's.

I love the parsifal's but I heard a speaker line called Opera
at the Montreal Show. They resemble the Sonus Fabers, from a looks factor. I liked them alot, also on the warmer side of the spectrum, to my ears.

I went with the Parsial Ovations. They sound amazing, and relatively easy to drive. Thank you all for your advice.
