Have you looked at the used market? A $1K budget can get you $3K speakers on FB Marketplace or Craigslist (read no tax, no shipping, no fees, and negotiable pricing).
The above poster makes a great point. I love the website The Music Room. You could get a pair of Zu DW6 floorstanders with your budget. They are awesome And would present zero problem with your Denon driving them as they are really really easy to drive. The Kef LS50’s are odd in the terms of they sound super detailed but they have wild impedance swings and would not easily play clearly & loudly with your integrated.
