$3000 stand mounted speakers?


Whats a good contender in the $3000 range for a small monitor speaker to use with an EL34 tube amp w/ 40 wpc? The room is lively w/ hardwood floors and 18' x 22' x  9'H family area.
I'm contemplating the ProAc Tablet 10, but I'm wondering if I can do better by increasing my purchase up to $3k.

(FYI, I don't want floor standing speakers because of WAF, and have no problem from my end on this matter.)

@mjcmt  yeah I think Dynaudio tends to work better with high current solid state amps, and i think the Special Forty would benefit from higher damping factor. 
The Silverline I meant was the Minuet Grand. Much more musically accurate than the Dynaudio IMO. Probably on par with Fritz, though I only heard them briefly. I have a full review on my site. 
Second the falcon ls3/5a’s.  I have a pair hooked up to a pair of audio note l4 monoblocks which are 40 watt el34 amps and the falcons are really spectacular in my small room.  The Devore o/93’s have not turned from facing the wall since I got the Falcons.  I also have the Stirling’s and they are good also, but the falcons edge them in transparency and details.  The Stirling s are also the excellent at both, just not quite...  but they do playa bit louder without strain.  Ok, get both!
i would not sell either.
Ok I have to step in hear. I had the Dynaudio Special 40 and the Fritz Carrera Be side by side... it’s not even close. The special 40 has one of the worst midranges you will find for a speaker > $2500. It’s almost criminal how bad the crossover design was for the speaker. Everything else is great but what all the reviews referred to as warm is nothing more than a congested mishap in the crossover. I have a pair of $120 diy speakers that have a more expensive, better designed and more coherent crossover then the $3000 special 40. On to the the Fritz... Most musical and detailed speaker I have heard. They have loads of detail like a pair of Merlins but make everything sound great and their is a real sense of weight. I guess the only step up would be a pair of Joseph Pulsars. Honestly the Carrera has one the most magical midranges you will ever hear. The Fritz Carreras can be driven with almost anything.. the Transducer tweeter ads so much tone and texture to the crossover region, and combined with the series crossover it sounds like a single full range driver. One could say the only neg of the Fritz Speaker is they are not the end old for speed and dynamics, but music... yea music
Tyler Linbrook signature system monitor. $3200 without stands. 
I have a full signature system powered by 40 watt EL34 int amp with no problem.
