Speaker suggestions under 4k

Well here it is. I sold my Tekton Double Impacts and my Lyngdorf 2170 a while back. I thought it sounded very good! I was getting out of audio and wasn't listening much anymore. Well..... now winter is here, I'm bored and have the itch to get something descent again. 
I like rock/metal/bluegrass/ acoustic/ some country. I need impact and good midbass and low fatigue. I have a Crown DCI 4/300 and a upgraded Jolida Fusion preamp at the moment. Plenty of power for almost anything. 

My biggest pet peeve is cabinets that start talking at high levels or when the sound hardens at high levels. 

Willing to drive up to 300miles 1 way for the right deal and I am in West Mi. A little older does not bother me at all. I've just started looking and a few I've been eying are:
Aerial LR5 or Model 9
Dali MS4
LSA 20 statements (new)
KEF 205/2
Dynaudio Focus 360

Any others anyone feels I should keep an eye out for in this price range? 

Thanks

Correct I bought speakers a while ago which I have stated. Also have had Triton ones in the past. Pretty good speaker. 
Still would like reccomendations for great amp for my Pioneer S-1ex.

Looks like I am picking up a single owner 2 year old black Parasound A21 tomorrow! The stars aligned and I got asked to go to a supplier across state close to where the amp is located the same day I saw the listing.

Ok the hardness at very high volumes was not a incoming power issue, speaker issue, or room issue. It was an amplifier power and probably voicing issue. I can can play to any volume level and it sounds superb to my ears with no hardness whatsoever. Really exceeded my expectations to be honest. This combo is the best sound I've had in my room no doubt.
