Considering Towers in the $3000 range

Why not pick up a pair of Infinity Kappa 9’s or 

9.2’s. Still to this day they are some of the better sounding speakers in that price range. 

Check out the Ascend Acoustics Sierra Towers.

Bamboo cabinets, RAAL ribbon tweeter, and SEAS drivers (I think)

An awful lot of speaker for the money.

Suggest you visit BestBuy and try out the B&W 704. 

Good luck with the MA silver! I have some MA bronze for my home theatre, but decided against HT and now the pair is split! One pair just doing stereo in my living room with the TV and a pair in the home office. Great brand!!!

Tekton Double Impacts do well in my system with a variety of music. They sound good at low and high volume levels. The speakers are big…yet, disappear. After owning them since 2018, I feel no need to replace them. They significantly reflect any change in components.
