Recommend a budget floor standing speaker less than $1,000

It’s entirely a question sourced directly in "system" synergy .

Lets’s start with the basic core first steps,

Ignoring the bespoke material influences of your listening environment that a wild card impossible to assess by a third party; the forum readers first require the full particulars of both:

(1) the makeup of rest of your system (I.e. Amp, source, cables); and
(2) a rough idea of your listening habits and music genre faves ,

Everything has its own sonic signature . Thus it is impractical -- if not impossible -- to offer up any meaningful response suggestions without this info.

Your query is a valid one, but it currently is presented in a much too broad manner. In its currently overly broad enquiry, all you will get back is invariably a blind response heavily driven by anecdotal personal bias, and likely a suggestion that may likely fail to suit your system synergy optimally.

Kindly list first your supporting system and listening details above, to cheerfully solicit a "rifle " approach list of responses instead of a "shotgun" approach.

Just noticed that you already floated a prior near identical ballon first re: bookshelves instead of floor-standers . Because each brand has its own bespoke sonic signature , Brand X floorstander model versus standmount in a comparable price range strata is the same. 

At your indicated pricepoint of a G-note, there will be minimal to nil sonic differences nor improvement of floor-standers over standmounts.

looks like you already have 90+ % of available info already - now it is a simple case of actually auditioning and choosing.

I stringy doubt that you will glean any further meaningful info in your quest to OZ ...its already distilled down to a a you-alone decision criteria level now.
