What speakers for 10k?

I can only speak for myself. My OHM F5s are it for me save perhaps OHM F5015s if I want to go nuts someday.

I would be tempted by MBL if could be had for that price but would probably have a ripple effect and make me spend a lot more time and money getting it right again.

If I could find the right Dynaudios for my current larger room I might be tempted.

Magico Mini 2s are wonderful speakers but not end game if you want it all unless perhaps in a smaller room.

Room size matters end game for a small room is much easier than for large.

Not so sure about the maggies they kinda remind me of a class d amp. I'm really getting interested in the vapor still breeze for some reason, and they are 3500 plus 500 for the stands. I don't usually look at bookshelf speakers but at 48 pounds a piece they hardly seem like a bookshelf.

If you are looking at Vapor, my personal faves in the line are the Aurora and Nimbus.

Yes the nimbus is a sexy looking speaker! would love to hear how it sounds. have you owned these speakers? if so what did you think of them?
