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 are people here on audiogon that are FAR worse and much more obnoxious than audiotroy. We all have opinions, and it doesn’t bother me as long as there aren’t any personal attacks or "I’m smarter than you" attitudes.
They sell audio components for a living, so yes, they’re going to have strong opinions one way or the other.

I offered my thoughts and suggestions regarding dealers posting on Audiogon.  I realized afterward posting it that I risked hijacking this thread from the OP so I have moved this discussion to the Misc Audio forum:  https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/my-thoughts-re-dealers-posting-on-audiogon

I am interested in your comments so please read it and add your thoughts.

How much money do you have? I bought a pair of speakers from a gent that had a really big room that he put revel salon 2’s in with a pair of krell 550’s I think and a couple big name subs crossed over at 70hz that was happy with the sound. Another buddy has a pair of klipschhorns with a nackamichi 55wpc receiver that probably goes just as loud and he’s happy. I got a deal on a pair of dsp 8000’s that suit my room and taste and I don’t think I’ve ever heard better.

The usher be20-dmd can go loud and still sound good without too much power if you like the look. I loved mine but found them just a bit too big for my 17x27 room. There's a pair of dsp 8000's on ag that will do the job with room to upgrade later. These speakers are my favorite at used prices.
