Looking for some new floor standing speakers


So I am in the market for some new floor standing speakers. I currently have Dynaudio Contour 20's, which I like,but I am looking for a bit more bass and, let's be honest, I am in the mood for something new. My current setup is a Simaudio ACE and a Cambridge Audio CXN v2, however, I have a NAD M33 on order (for weeks...). I listen to almost anything but rap and country, and just a little classical. I like Prog, New Wave, Grunge, and Jazz mostly. I've not auditioned much yet, but I'd like to get some opinions on what might be the best path or even if I should take that path :). I want to stay below $5k before trade-in and discounts.

The ones on my list to try are:
Focal 936
Revel F208
Goldenear Triton 2+
KEF R7

Love to hear any thoughts!

bigkidz......Read the OP. The Vandersteen 5A's are just a TAD over what he wants to spend.
I have the NAD M33 now myself and you get a good portion of bass straight from the unit, very balanced with the mids and uppers, but it’s def. there! I’m on even less of a budget so I’ve tried SVS Ultra bookshelves with an SVS sub, sounded pretty good. Then went to the Prime Pinnacles and it was a step backwards. I’ve now got kef Q750’s and the bass is bloated and boomy, so unless they tighten up considerably they’ll be gone just after Christmas. My next step are the Polk L200’s, they’re getting great reviews, might check out the PSB line, too. No matter what, you’re going to love your NAD M33!
Now, what were those big ugly multi-driver speakers with the poor finish and garish colours?
I am sure we shall hear soon.
