There are hundreds of options - what have you used in the past and what are you looking for. If you like vocal then a good midrange is a must.

The B&W Nautilus 805 should defintely be on your audition list - I am not a B&W fan but this particular model is a "keeper" - an absolute no brainer in terms of performance for value...
Both Spendor and Harbeth have strong followings among those who listen to a lot of vocal and acoustic music. I have the Spendor SP1/2E and I simply love its naturalness and ease with well recorded material.

The only problem is that you will spend less than your budget if you buy a pair used. (I think the new SP1/2Rs run around $5K and SP1/2Es run $1,200 to $2,500 used depending on age and condition.)

Harbeth is also very well regarded and run slightly higher than Spendor.

They are well worth an audition.
