Mini-monitors $5,000 - $10,000

I'm looking to replace my Kharma Ceramique 3.2 FE's with a very good mini-monitor. A high WAF factor (I'm a design freak too so I'm in on this too)is important. So far I'm down to the Marten Heritage Duke 2 (I've auditioned their Form speaker so I have a good idea of the "house" sound and like it) and the Joseph Audio Pulsar (which I have yet to hear).

Any thoughts on either would be appreciated as well as alternatives. No, the Raidho's are too much.

I'll be driving them with a SimAudio Moon 600i and a PS Audio PerfectWave DAC. Occasional vinyl once I get a phono amp again. I listen to pretty much everything.

Thanks in advance for your input.

Definitely check out Vapor Audio. They are kicking ass at a reasonable price range. There are two reviews out recently.
Good Luck!

Von Schweikert Unifield 2. They look good (imo better than dyn audio & raidho, but not as cool as magico mini 2), better bass than the Magico mini2 (which are known to be weak in that dept anyway) Uni2's are also well built. Overall sound is quite transparent, quality of the bass is bloody awesome..but it took a couple months of use for the bass to get there. Absolutely no need for a sub with these for music.

Kind of surprised nobody mentioned the Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOnes yet. They're fantastic (I own them). Will listen to the Raidho X-1 today just out of curiosity.
