~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought


There a chance I'll be able to make a significant investment in my speakers within a few months, and jump from $4K/pr Focal 926 to something in the 10-15K range. I'm running krell gear and have no intention of changing electronics, they are perfectly suited to my ears - - but if new speakers expose weaknesses, then I'll tackle that later.

Here's the thing: aesthetics matter to me, a lot, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I love my art and home and music is a huge part of my lifetime joy. These are some of the brands /models that I personally think are beautiful, and I'd love to hear from folks who could speak to a possible pairing with Krell. I like precision, speed, clarity, and firm bottom. 

Room is approx 18x20x9. New or used is ok.

Von Schweikert Endeavor SE
Vienna Acoustics Klimt The Music
Magico S3
JBL Synthesis (4700, 9900, etc.) 
Spatial (loved the demos I heard but not sure if OB would work in my space)

Appreciate any insight, despite the aesthetic emphasis.

Of those you listed:

1. Spatial Audio M3 Sapphire or possibly the X5/X3

2. Magico S3
3. JBL 4700 - but, terrible resale value 50%, or less.

But... my 1st choice would always be that of many recording studios...
Legacy Focus SE/XD, or the ATC SCM50 or SCM100 (which are way too expensive).

Harbeth 40.2’s are also superb... but... require careful matching to the right amp (ie. Hegel H390 or H590).
If you have $15k to spend, you MUST audition the New Sonus Faber Olympic Nova III speakers. I auditioned them but not in my price range. I've owned the Venere 2.5's and now own the Sonetto V speakers. The new Olympica's are outstanding!
I like the Martin Logan’s 15a. Focal point for appearance with its transparent panels  Plus, sound is so detailed
The JBL 4429’s suck up the 200w/ch@8ohms or 300w/ch @6ohms in their case.  You need power and control for a 12” woofer and clean sound.  Very spatial and dynamic...now a Klipsch would likely not respond well to the Krell.
