Hi,
You might just want to try something out of the far leftfield. Seeing that you are quite near to Noteworthy Audio, they currently have a pair of my acrylic dipoles. May be worthwhile having a listen.

They do need subs for the last octave (they go down to around 50Hz in room, no-more) but visitors to my place have remarked I should be paying more council tax, considering how "big" music sounds through them.... 
So, have a listen and see if this sort of stuff appeals.
Ciao T
