Am a big lover of Dali Zensor range - it outperformed the Paradigm Monitor 7 and Monitor Audio Bronze 5, when I was auditioning.
(I haven't heard the Mission MX5)
A small plus for Dali is that they are priced inline with international prices i.e. no premium
The other speaker I missed out is the Tannoy Mercury
Tannoy Mercury 7.4 (1 Pair)
Seems to be in your budget and has always been rated top entry-level floorstander
Another highly rated speaker, but seems to be missing from discussions in the forum these days

PSB Imagine series has always been very well reviewed - lively, energetic and a wall-of-sound sort of reviews
Should align well with your largish room
