For me, WAF was the initial motivator. We looked at Quads but finally settled on Sonus Faber Electa Amators. I have lived happily with them for twenty years. The size mattered here, so smaller was more acceptable. I have never regretted that decision. The sound is warm and solid, never thin. They are beautifully made, sculpted walnut and I doubt that I would ever sell them. The walnut and marble stands look heavy but are esay to move. You don't need to build a room around them, they fit anywhere.
