Floor to Bookshelf

I have a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 12.4 towers that I like but are simply too large for my listening position. A smaller pair of floorstanders would work just fine, but since I presume I will one day be moving everything into a smaller listening space, I'm thinking of taking this opportunity to move down to standmount speakers. 

That said, I'd love some recommendations for a pair of speakers that would still feel like an upgrade in sound. Non-fatiguing detail is most important to me, as is imaging and soundstage. Right now I'm looking at the Dynaudio Evoke 20, but those are a bit pricey. I'd like to spend less if I can but the budget is probably $1k-$2k.

At that price point, I'd look for used, powered KEF LS50 wireless loudspeakers.  Get the 2nd revision.

Just bought a week or so ago I think the best stand mounts I have ever owned.

Bache Audio Sonata-Ex-2

Compared to Spendor, Dyn, Rogers, Kef and Tetra. He is here on the Agon. Glad I found him while out surfing for something new. He does give a trial period. Look up Bache Audio- I don't see any listed- may have to contact him thru another ad??
