Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers

So, I am getting rid of the wife (divorce, I am not burying her in the backyard!) and can now get big floor standing speakers. I currently have a Luxman integrated and model 30 Harbeth speakers, and a very good sub. Very neutral/natural sound, can listen for long sessions. But I don't get a very good image, and it seems a little too laid back. I listen mainly to singer-song writers, both male and female. Lots of acoustic/piano.

There are so many floor standers now, I'd like to shorten the list. Any suggestions to start my search? I am located in southern CA, so I can listen to almost any brand. Price should be under $100K. 

I may lose a wife, but so far the freedom/cash is worth it.

Thanks all!

The last few years of CAF, the room that I thought sounded the best was the mbl room. Perhaps it was the electronics, but I think the speakers are amazing. The have a number of offerings in your price range.  Definitely worth a listen.

I would say if you have the money go to high end Store and listen to Speakers and Amps and buy a combined system if something YOU HEAR really stands out.And really make yourself happy being single.Good Luck

Sometimes you don’t appreciate what you have.  My wife, a divorce attorney, told m to get new speakers (Charney with AER-BD3).  I guess I’m keeping her until the end.
