One other place you might want to check out is Casa Montalvo, I've never played one of his guitars but I've read some pretty good reviews of them. Here are some links. http://www.berkeleymusic.com/flamenco.html , http://www.guitarsint.com/default.cfm , http://www.zavaletas-guitarras.com/
Good luck in your search.

I sent OP a PM regarding my Estevé. Since you, unlike me, have experience with several brands of classical guitars, please post your candid opinion of Estevés, or even the 1GR08, if you happen to be familiar with it. (I believe the current version of the same guitar is simply Model 8.)
