I’d be remiss if I didn’t suggest you keep your ear to the ground for a pair of Forte IIs. They seem to go used for around $1300CAD/pair when they pop up on Kijiji or Canuck Audio Mart, and...well, they bop.
@Hollywood here’s a pair of Forte Is in your province: Klipsch forte | Speakers | Oakville / Halton Region | Kijiji
@Hollywood I’d buy the Fortes before anything you are considering.
