I will second the Polk Audio recommendation. If your receiver or amp can handle a 4 ohm speaker then take a look at the Lsi 7 or 9 used. The Rti and Rt series present an 8 ohm load and would also be good choices as well as cost effective. While I haven't heard the more recent Polk offerings, I own the Rti38's (which are the Rti4's predecessor) and I believe they would be exactly what you're looking for. There are other good choices but Polk is worth a look given your listening preferences. Good luck.
