Go to your dealer and get a pair of Maggies. Take them home and listen to them (your dealer will set them up for you.)
If your gear is not top notch, you will probably not like what you hear on the Maggies. This is the sound of the GEAR, not the speakers.
If you don’t care for them, it really does not matter what speaker you buy. It will be a box or electrostat and distort and cause listening fatigue.
You may also find that most all "better" speakers today are about 6' high. Wonder where they got that idea???
Remember that your room is the most important part of your system, so work with your dealer to make sure it is at optimum listening quality.
Most of all, enjoy the MUSIC. That is what this is all about.
Cheers!
