Opinions on speaker upgrade choices

System as follows: Dr. Feickert Volare>Modwright Ph9.0xon analog side... Antipodes S30>Rockna Wavelight. Backend 9s Primaluna Evo400>Pass labs Xa30.8>Ascend Acoustics towers/Raal tweeters. Room is 12.5x21.5 with another 8x8 at back right of room. Have treatments at first reflection and rear wall. Budget in 10k range. Listen to all kinds of music from new age to Porcupine Tree! My first two choices are the Legacy Signature SE and the Vandersteen Treo CTs. I've also looked at Kanta 2. The Monitor Gold 300 is also a possibility? With system and room dimensions and musical choices how would you rank these choices? I would always choose musicality and would slightly lean to the warm side. Matching to the Xa30.8 could limit some possibilities.

Thanks for your time in advance!✌️

Vandersteen added a new dealer in Boca Raton, Bocatech hired a very experienced audio crew and added Treo Ct, Quatro Ct, and KENTO Cabron to their demo.  They are happy to make an appointment, and they also host Saturday "hang-outs" for listening.

Their key audio salespeople have over 100 years of experience even though their new audio focus started only last year.

Give them a call and go visit.  I wonder if you can figure out the front door.  It took me a while.  :-)

Yea, I have Vandersteen Treo’s, and recommend them highly. Although I play a lot of classical, my collection is wide and varied (Jazz, fusion, rock, pop, alternative, indie, folk, singer/songwriter, etc). Everything sounds good played through them.

I haven't seen a bad word about the Treos! Can I ask what you're powering them with? I love the look of them!
