Looking for a good full range floor stander

Hello all.  Making a good two way system for a 20 x 40x 12 high room budget 12k to 16 k.  Powered by a bryston 14b cubed amp.  Have a surround system with Golden ear ref and surrounds powered by parasound a21 for mains  and Carver cinema grand for surrounds. Like the GEs  The speakers I'm looking for will be for music only lots of jazz (female vocalist a fav), classical, classic rock and roll (70's and up).  I have heard good things about proac k6, Joseph audio, and a few others but am not within 4 hours of audition range.  Real interested in people in the know about the proac or suggestions.  Thanks in advance.

... there have been more than enough contributions to this thread for the OP to judge for himself who is trying to give disinterested suggestions and advice, and who approaches the whole thing with a bunch of biases.
Pretty much everyone here is biased. Those that claim no bias are among those with the greatest biases.

Sincere unbiased opinions are what most posters are trying to give here.  This thread started out so good.  Such a shame.

@audiotroy ,
Proac is not known howerver, for their ability to play loud and fill up giant rooms
Do you know it or have you actually heard?

It is totally possible that the Proac D48 might sound as good or even better than the Leagacy Focus we were recommening
Makes it clear that you provided feedback on an assumption that you made. That is the part I don't get.

Anyway, I hope OP has enough information and gets a chance to update us all on the direction he has decided to take.

I am fortunate to live in an urban area - Washington, DC - with several B&M stores and distributors who are willing to cooperate with in-home auditions. Nothing is as good as an in-home experience, especially when the room is challenging. I know that the OP does not have this luxury. But it is true nonetheless.
