Default Undersink filtering - Where to start?

We are trying to figure out the best undersink filtering option for us. We have a well water supply and having been having issues with sediment in the water - turns it a bit cloudy. We have whole house filters already - one is a huge canister type not sure how it works - some type of sand perhaps? Then we have a 10" carbon filter which we purchased from you.

The reason we have come to the conclusion that we want to do additional filtering is that the water that comes from our fridge's drinking water line (using an Aqua Pure filter) is crystal clear. So obviously that is filtering better that our current system. However, I do not want to only have a little drinking faucet, I would like to have the main cold water at the faucet be well filtered as well - for cooking mainly in addition to filling up pitchers of water at a time.

Once you start looking at 10 micron vs 5 vs .5 micron filters you start to think - if I am going to do this I want to do the best filtering possible. Especially since we have well water and can't necessarily anticipate what contaminants might be in there? Any help to point us in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
