Bookshelf Recommendations

Long time, first time here. Looking to upgrade my current speakers. While I know the best way to judge is by actually LISTENING to a set-up, I've read a lot of positive reviews of the SVS Ultimas. Does anyone here have first hand experience with those or a similar bookshelf at the +/-$1k price point?

My listening space is 12 x 12, with a Carver M1.5t power amp and CJ PV-12 pre.

In my opinion ADS Book Shelfs will give speakers worth 10X their price a run for their money.
Starting with their L300s
II use a pair of 300s with a powered 8"powered sub.

The Pangea 3 column speaker stands sell for $100 on Audio Advisor. There is a '300' in the model number. 

Paulcreed, If I were looking for another pair of speakers I would be interested in those Usher Be 718s.

ADS?  The old L300’s from back when?  Those little stand speakers?  Are you kidding?

Has anyone heard the Klipsch rp 600m? A couple of good reviews have popped up on youtube recently.

yes, i listened to a well seasoned set of 600ms and wondered what they were smoking.  FYI stereophile class C.  
completely disappointed.  there are much better sounding speakers at and below this price point.   made me lose respect for all the people hyping it.
