Looking to upgrade my 3-way towers

My current amp/speaker combo is the Conrad-Johnson LP70S tube amp/Ascend Acoustics Sierra towers. They are a nice combo that I like but am looking to upgrade the AA's to another 3-way tower that is higher priced with more refinement. I'm happy with the CJ amp.

Any comments from those listeners who have direct experience with the CJ/3-way towers and those who would like to make suggestions.

Thanks!

wolf_garcia,
Never was a fan of horn speakers and I think now the wide baffle but thank you for the suggestion. I believe I may be looking more for the narrower baffled speakers.

Yeah, Tekton Double Impacts will be easier to drive, more efficient, play louder, much more refined, and almost universally acclaimed to compete with $10k speakers. Listen to this guy at 5:50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RxRTFx6Cd0&t=627s
Or if you want more do like me and order Moabs. Or Ulfberhts, if you're really determined to spend $10k. Refinement and you are there presence in spades. Hang on, if you want yet another review, Eric says he should have my Moabs to me in a few weeks.

millercarbon,
The video is impressive but I believe they may be too large for my room. I've never had a speaker of that size in my room. Not sure they would satisfy. Something smaller is what I am looking for. Thanks for the suggestion.

A used pair of Joseph Audio Perspectives will be a significant upgrade in refinement and overall performance and are well within your budget.  Best of luck.
