Two speakers come to mind.
The Phase Technology pc1.5 $1100 and the Eminent Technology lFT-16 $980. The Eminent's are only 86db but they are an easy load.
Did you sell your all Rega system?

about $400. and a little larger cabinet and no grills?....Just wondering....I hadn't seen those before....
TWB,
See the attached thread from AVS forum. At the bottom of the thread there are some posts from a member named TDI Driver. He is a Phase TEch dealer. The 1.5's use the darts tweeter, no longer use the antidifraction foam around the tweeter, and use a new honeycomb flat piston driver.

Hi Dennis. Yes, my all Rega system is gone. My wife wanted a home theater set up in our bedroom so I sold the Rega set up, bought a very nice 42" LG high def TV and the electronics and speakers [Denon & Paradigm] to go with it. I was never much interested in home theater but I must say I enjoy the hell out of it. Signed up for Direct TV, got every movie and sport channel they offer. I may never step foot in a movie theater again. It's really nice to lay in bed and watch state of the art television. Who knew? :) My current basement system is made up of things I had, except the Jolida, which I bought new. The large Klipsch rock but I really am used to something a little more, um, refined. I want a speaker large enough to fill my basement, deep, full bass, fast detailed mids and treble, easy to run from my Jolida. Shouldn't be too much to ask for, should it?
Merle,
I never thought I would recommend JBL to anyone, but the L880 might be what you are looking for. It just received a rave review from a British Magazine, HIFI+? I read the review a few weeks ago and I remembered that the description of the speakers sounds exactly what you are looking for. They were described as forward sounding with deep bass with a very articulate top end. The L series isn't the crap available in Best Buy. I was reviewed with tubes and matched up very well.
I'm not sure of the MSRP.
Dennis
