Help needed for upgrading...

I would like to upgrade from Quad 21L2...looking for a similar type speaker in terms of bass extension and punch, and neutrality. Just want a lot more detail and transparency. And want something dynamic but not bright. I have a Simaudio I3 amp, which is considered neutral solid state.

Room is about 18x18.

In my area, I can only purchase the following:
(1) Dynaudio - 220 may have too much bass for me
(2) Spendor - perhaps S6e or S8e
(3) PMC - perhaps GB1i or FB1i
(4) Harbeth SHL5, but I cannot audition these
(5) Dali Mentor 6, although these could be bright with my amp

Does anyone have any experience with one or more of these speakers...
Thanks

I have read that Spendor is a "relaxing" sound - would you say it is "realisitic"....

Does the S8e have better midrange and high frequencies than the S6e?

Before you toss the speakers look at your cables and interconnects. I highly recommend Clear Day Solid Core Speaker Cables. You will want these anyway so why not try them with what you own?
