I appreciate all the recommendations. Maybe I confused some with my OP, but am looking to set up a wired system from my PC and not wireless. I conducted alittle more research and found two speaker models that I really like, even though they are above my price point. The two I like are Goldenear BRX and Dynaudio Evoke 10s. I would like to hear what you guys think about these speakers. Also, what type of integrated amplifier should I use? I would like to keep it at $1,000 or less for the amp, but could go more if it really makes a difference. Again, thanks for the help. 

Both really good speakers. You should try and audition them at a dealer if possible (both have dealer networks, I don't know if any are near you). You will probably find you prefer one over the other.  There isn't a right answer, it's whatever appeals to you more.

 

The dealer can also recommend a suitable amp. If his amp prices are too high, come back when you pick a speaker and I'm sure you can get some specific recommendations here. NAD was mentioned. They make some very good equipment in your price range. They also make some integrated amp/dacs that would mean all you'd need to do is add one box to your speakers and connect the PC to the integrated.

Main listening (small home office):

Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments.

Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three BXT

Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup.
Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. 

All absolute statements about audio are false :)
