And now for something completely different...
How about the Epos M5s or the Nola Lil Rascals MkII, both under $700, but terrific buys for the money.
They are both outstanding dynamically, with large soundstages, clarity, good imaging, very balanced & natural sounding, and resolving. You say you don't care about bass but both have good LFs, especially for their size. They donlt need subs to sound satisfying.
The Epos are a hair more refined in the treble and the Nola is a hair more nimble in the mid-upper bass. NO brightness or fatigue in either. They're articulate enough for classical and acoustic but they can boogie too.
You would appreciate the dynamics - they will handle loud volumes without congestion or collapsing the sound stage. Big sound outa little boxes. Check 'em out.
Use the money you save to start a fund for better electronics.
BTW, I do like Green Mountain and Dynaudio, but I could never warm up to the afforable B&Ws and I don't like M&K.
