Adding my two cents here.

Fully agree with all of the praise for the 6000s, and those would be my 1st pick among the choices you listed. Will also note that re-capping makes a big difference from my experience as well.

I haven't priced them in a while, but maybe you can look around on Craigslist or FB marketplace to see about getting a better price?

If you cannot find 6000s, the 5500s seem to be more readily available (and lower priced) and are fine speakers. I used a set of 5500s nearly every day for almost 10 years. As others noted, the bass is different and they are more tricky to place, but still excellent and a great value.

Good luck!
