The most tower like stand mount under $4k


The title says it all.  What's the most "tower like" (i.e. accurate, musical, full sounding, not overly revealing or clinical) standmount speakers you've ever heard new or used around $3000(ish) ?

Also, what speaker (tower or standmount) are screaming deals of value and quality at or under this price?

I want to get quality but only up to the point of diminishing returns. I'm looking to equally spread the quality across integrated, speakers, and dac.

Just looking for the group to brainstorm suggestions for me. There are next to nothing in the way of brick and mortar hifi stores near me except Best Buy.

The most refined and balanced speakers under 3k I’ve heard was Amphion Argon 3s.

Most musical was probably Triangle Comete 40th Anniversary which I actually had last time, though the mid was colored and the bass needs a sub to support. 

Not in your price range new, but used they fit in your budget. Great bass for a standmount speaker and the ribbon tweeter is the same in all ProAc speakers.

A better description of your system would be helpful. ProAc speakers are generally amp friendly

Well probably a 3 way would be closest to the norm tower speaker. Little less bass because of cabinet volume etc.

KEF has one I believe, Tekton Impact Monitor, Paradigm S4 (older) but kick ass, I think Salk makes one.  uhhh I’m sure there’s more but not as many as you might think.

I’ve owned the Falcon IMF-100. You can get the kit or factory built for under 2 grand shipped ( no tax). They are sold factory direct only. They are a Transmision Line design. I received them in less than one week after placing order.

KEF R3 Meta bolted onto their bespoke stands, My dealer has told me since the original R3 was introduced that "the R3 is the best-selling floorstanding speaker that's not a tower" he's ever offered. And sold a LOT of them.
