I have similar preferences in music / sound... and... I've tried / owned a number of superb speakers, several of which I still have.
The ones I've found to have sound to rival the best at any price in your price range (actually below) are the WaveTouch Grand Tetons, which have recently been upgraded to the Antero's.

For my money that's what I would get - they will rival any of those you noted, and exceed most of them.
