Speaker Recommendation up to 70k

I have purchased SOTA swiss front end which I can't disclose. They are solid state. 
Got room treated , cables sorted , power supply regulated, a comfy couch and books to read for years. 

Now I need a pair of beautiful and lively speakers to get me up and dancing when the track calls for it. A SOTA speaker that is worthy of keeping for years. Room size is 25 sqm/ 269 sqft. 

Final contenders: 
- Zellaton 
- Stenhiem 
- Tidal- Marten- Wilson 
- Borresen

I don't need (you need to listen and decide) suggestions, I can't travel and we got no dealers with demos. So I'll have to rely on users honest opinions about each brand above and are they worthy of the cost. 

No electrostatics and no horns please. Appreciate if you know how to get the most benefit at the upper botique level of speakers. Some might look fabulous and sound meh. 

Let's discuss.

I have only heard speakers in this range at shows except for MBL which I have heard at a dealer. Shows are not the best place to make a decision but I have an opinion anyway.

The ones I've heard from your list that I really liked and that I think can work with many rooms and amps are Stenheim and Borresen. 

I really like MBL too but they must match the room. And Magico M6 but they are much more costly.

Just an idea, if it is covid that is stopping you from flying to France or Italy and listen to some speakers, you could perhaps wait a few months and go then?

Just a thought, no virus ever stopped anyone going anywhere. People do that. People who want to control other people. We now return you to our regularly scheduled stream of irrelevant commentary.
