best speaker in a small room in the $2000.00 range

I know this is a mater of taste but I wanted to hear some suggestions. My room is small...11x14 with wall to wall carpet. I don't listen to rap or heavy metal. I lean towards vinyl over cd's....I have a Mcintosh 2205 amp and a Mcintosh mx117 with a VPI Scout/Benz Micro glider as a frount end.....any thoughts? I have Paradigm studio 80's rev 1 right now and want to inprove on that.
thanks, Dean

I just picked up a pair of Proac One SC's and they are amazing. You should definitely check these out.

You might audition the Dynaudio Focus 140 if there is a dealer in your area. It just got an excellent review in the current issue of Stereophile.

I have also been impressed with the Paradigm Signature S2. You currently own a pair of Paradigms, so you know their general reputation. The "Signature" series is a step up in performance and is relatively small in size. Here are a couple of links to reviews:

These are all good ideas...I forgot to clarify...I would probably buy USED...so the dollar amount for a new set could be higher...maybe the 2500.00 to 4000.00 range???
Does this change any suggestions??
