I'm no fan of the Hahns, so I can't recommend them. I've seen too many spoiled and plucked Hahns macaws. They are much less charming when they take a bite for spite.
You might want to check out the Illigers. They aren't easy to find, but they are lovely little creatures. I have a Severe. They are wonderful in the right homes and awful in the wrong ones. They are very pretty and extremely intelligent. However, they tend to love only one person and can be very noisy. I wouldn't take $5,000 for the one I have, but I wouldn't add a second one either.
Have you considered an eclectus? They can be wonderful companions. I suspect that if you visited a good breeder and spent some time with an eclectus, you'd fall head over heels in love pretty quickly. Many prefer the males, I actually prefer the females.
