Yeah, I mean. I've done a bucket load of research in the last few days. @rogan If you can stretch to B&W 607's at £399, get them. Obviously if you like the way they sound that is. They're really pretty. I listened to them and they were fantastic. Using a basic Rotel amp>USB>Tidal HiFi on my phone.
Second hand stuff is obviously worth a shout too. Fortunately, US sites are willing to accept returns to earn your business, so I'm just buying stuff to then potentially return it. Though, the Oberon's look pretty great from my partner's approval factor, size requirements and it helps that I like the Dali house sound.
What has become very clear is that, even though most sub $1000 speakers are made in China, buying speakers from North American brands in the U.S. is far cheaper than European brands and buying European brands in the UK is much cheaper than North American brands.

JB's Dali Oberon 1 looks like a good suggestion if space is an issue.
