Best speakers 2,500 can buy.


I am currently looking at Totem Hawks, Gallo ref3,and merlin TSM speakers. I have narrowed it to these three. But I cannot decide from here. I have an average room at 14x24, and I listen to music 75% versus video 25%. I am looking for a very detailed hi resolution type speaker. I want it to be very musical also. I have climbed up the ladder from polks to B&Ws, but want my next purchase to last a long while. Need opinions.

totem forest or the totem mani-2. my audio room is 13.5' x 24' long and i use the mani 2's and they are very nice in a room this size. if you like the hawks, i think the forests might be better in a room like yours.
I have Hawks with Audio Research VS110 tube amp and they sing beautifully. I've also had them hooked up to a 100wps solid state Exposure integrated and they have really opened up with the tubes.
you won't be disappointed with Harbeth monitors in your budget. they draw you in with grace and ease and oozes refined details.
