Best Speakers to Audition in the $5-10k range?

I am looking to audition some speakers that are not massive in size with a large sound stage and lots of air that are fairly detailed in the $5-10k range that will sound good off of an Ayre V-3 amp and Krell Showcase Pre/Pro. They will be used for 90% home theater. Any suggestions?

I agreed w/ Jkalman. With a pair of Dynaduio C1, Contour SCX center and SR speakers, you will get amazing sound not only with HT but also with musice listening as well. You will need to buy them used due to your budget. You can add a sub if you budget allows.

I would check out the new Thiels. They are very nice and as good as I have heard under $10K.(I cant think of anything I like more in this price range) My second choice if your tastes lean slightly to the warmer side of the fence would be the Quatros. Not as nice in the bass as the new Thiels but easier to adapt to in different rooms, and they dont need as much power. Also as hard as this is to say the Thiels image and soundstage better. which is saying something because the Quatros are great also.
Anyway, if buying new under $10K one of these would be my choice.
