Some folks like stiff. Some like light. Some like aero. Some want it all. It is so hard to describe. From my own perspective, I really like riding light wheels. For me that means about 1,250 g for the pair. I don't need expensive hubs and rims, but I want them to be light. Lightest possible spokes too, as long as they are stainless steel. I just like light wheels feel when accelerating. I can live without the ultimate stiffness, but I just really like light weight. In a way I am saying this not to get you to agree, but rather to realize you may have your own preference. Without a chance to ride all kinds of wheels, it could take you years to learn what you really want. I know it did for me. Best plan is to get in touch with a reasonably priced custom builder. Somebody like psimet. Discuss your body weight, riding style, intended use of the wheels, and let him help you plan your next pair. Then you can continue to evolve your preferences on the basis of what you learn from those wheels. It isn't a destination, it is a journey. Deep, huh? Good luck.
