Dynamic Design. Lotus AE15. Trasparent, 3-D (layered and wide) big, quiet, easy detail, neutral, etc. etc. There's one for sale on USAudioMart that would fit your budget. The different will be notable. I'm using the bigger brother Titania and have heard the Lotus. Less tonal density, but that's just being picaune and not true compared to other pc's in the same range. I wouldn't fault that at all - not really noticeable without a/b comparison tp the Tiatnia - you don't miss your water 'til it's gone kind of thing.
