What speakers match my system? $3,000 Budget

Lots of speakers can match your system, but it would be helpful to know what aspects of sound are important to you and what you're looking to improve from what you have now.

Sure, the sound I'm getting now has great tight bass (which is important to me), and wonderful rich mids on vocals but the highs can get a little scratchy, empty and seem to lose detail especially with fast paced strings like the violin. Adele (album 21) is a good example that shows all the strengths (fantastic deep bass and clear rich vocals) but also all of the weaknesses (raspy highs and just noisy sounding instrumentals).

So basically something with deep/ rich bass and mids, better clarity and detail in the highs, and also something with a smoother transition from mid to high.

Musical preference is: classical (cello, violin, piano), classic rock, stuff like Adele (not sure what genre that falls into), and the occasional techno or hiphop.

Room dimensions of only 15'x14' aren't a factor in my decision because I'm moving soon.

Does that help narrow down the options?

Thanks!!!

I highly suggest that you use the recommendations here only as a guide and not as means to make a decision. You will have to find a way to listen to at least a few models to get a sense of the range of tonalities and identify what sonic cues are most appealing to YOUR ears. If I'm not mistaken, I would guess that the vast majority of Audiogon audiophiles would also describe "deep/ rich bass and mids, better clarity and detail in the highs, and also something with a smoother transition from mid to high" as desireable, but the challenge is that you're unlikely to get too many of us to agree as to what speakers satisfy this need.
Having said all this, my personal preferences are Thiel first and Vandersteen second. A preowned pair of Thiel 2.4s are hard to beat for the $$$.

I would like to mention that Adele 21 is the worst production imaginable. I like the music but I can't play it at home and instead just enjoy it as background music at the grocery store. You need tone controls for that one. Even with tubes and soft dome tweeters the high notes are unbearable.
