Need Rec--Affordable Proac D25-esque speaker

I've been through all kinds of equipment/speakers including everything from huge and heavy full range floor standers (e.g. Legacy signatures) to Planars (currently running Magnepan 1.6's) but am ready to settle down to a better imaging/transparent (disappear from the room type) loudspeaker.

The best speaker that I ever heard...with my equipment in the mix...was the proac d25...but they were too expensive for me at the time (as are the D28's right now)..(side note: yes, Proac your stuff sounds great..but 6 grand for a two way?)

What's a comparable relatively small footprint, few driver, simple design, coherent, disappear type of speaker...under 1500 used, if even exists (running a tricked out MF A5 AMP so power or sig quality not issue
