Another idea would be a set of active speakers like the Airpulse Model 1’s by Phil Jones ($999) which would give you enough left over for a decent set of stands or the previously recommended Kef ls-50 wireless speakers but you would have to get very lucky to find a used pair within your budget.
I also like the Vincent recommendation, I have owned the SV 237 and it was a solid performer.
