Stand Mount Speakers

This might be a good place to start

The LSA-10 Signatures will blow away your 602s on every level, and they’re much more sensitive so will sound much better at lower volume levels.  Spend more on Focals or Dyns if you want, but I think the LSAs will make you’re very happy for a lot less.  Best of luck. 

Thanks. Will take that into consideration. 

The GoldenEar BRX is also right at the price point of the two you mentioned. I have a pair in my bedroom system and find them very enjoyable. They use the same tweeter and mid/bass drivers as in GE's Reference model. 

Evoke 20s

I'd vote for the Dynaudios.  Hands down excellent bass response and detailed sound stage with a wide variety of vinyl.  If you decide to move on, their value holds up very well.

Make sure you use the Dynaudio stands; they securely mount to each speaker and really enhance the performance.

my vote goes for the monitor audio gold or platinum Gen 2 lines.

You will be disappointed with the lack of bass with the focals. Dynaudio, totem model 1’s, usher mini-x, usher s-520, usher x-719, the golden ear’s, and many others. You might want to look at the revel m15’s/m16’s, totem hawk, usher mini dancer 1’s, all very tiny floor standing speakers that would not take up any more room that a stand mount speaker, and will sound good at low and high volumes

Not sure of budget but the DIY kit from Madisound of the Klang & Ton 2 way lg shelf / stand speakers can be had for around $2k using flat pack cabs and supplies.  Use arguably some of the best drivers known with hi-quality XO parts.  For another $1k can get heirloom furniture quality cabs built by Lee Taylor.  Ported or unported design.  I think they sound best low power to about 85 db listening level in my medium room (14 x 21).

Lee Taylor makes some beautiful cabinets.

however never heard them unfortunately 

my experience with speakers is very mixed.

I’ve had Quad ESL, Maggie, TAD, AR, Paradigm,

Epos, Elac , Bozak Polk, and what it all came down to was room acoustics and power!

currently I’m using Epos Epic 2 with about a 120 watt feed and they sound great.

also I’m using Elac 2.0/B6.2 with 80 watts of power and these too sound v good.

Also the quality of the music feed is vital. In sum, it’s not an easy equation to solve-it’s like a simultaneous equation- 

I think the Elac are terrific ,not because of price , but it’s unreal what Andrew Jones did for speakers that sell for a fraction of others.

Also the use of a power conditioner where I reside has been an asset. It’s hard to be pleased with a multi variant like audio !

nevertheless we are supporting the economy and keeping out of trouble !

+ 1 Andrew Jones, ELAC will miss him ...

I really should have added that I’m choosing not to purchase product coming out of China. Maybe short-sighted but in general if I can find something comparable manufactured somewhere else it gets my support. I know the Monitors, much of Elac, Fyne are coming out of China.

Small, direct, high quality, in home trial: Fritz.

Made in California by designer with 40 years experience. Check these forums for "Fritz." Very high value for the $$.

you will have to set up a bit$$$$ to avail China. All top tier Fyne are made in Scotland. 
 

ATC are made in the UK

I've never heard them personally but the Buchardt S400 always get excellent reviews and there is lots of YouTube videos about them Good luck in your seach!

I think they have an in home trial period

+1 for Totem. Their Sky stand mount has relatively deep bass response with great mids and highs. Doesn’t need powerful amp. Made in Canada. 
 

if your budget permits, Aerial Acoustics 5T is a spectacular speaker made in the US. 

Ref 3A de Capo

Based on your pre-amp and amp, it looks like you have a multi-channel HT system and also use it for 2-channel music listening. Is this correct? Do you have center/surround speakers also connected to the system?

Not too many B's are good at low end, 602's are very good sounding midrange-trebble. Just add sub

I am using multichannel for HT (3.1) but run strictly 2.0 when playing music. Most of the time it's vinyl.

Reference 3A De Capo Be. Once you hear them you'll know.

I, too, live in a 1300 sq ft condo and it really is a challenge.  However, I have a pair of Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene on Sound Anchor stands built specifically for the Pulsars and I have been extremely happy with them at high and low volume.  I run a McIntosh MA2275 tube integrated amp, Rega P6 with a PS Audio Stellar Phono preamp.  Digitally I run Roon through an Apple Mac Mini and a MoJo Audio Mystique v2 DAC.

I failed to mention that I run a REL T/5i with my Pulsars.

I love my Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand Symphonies.  

Don't hear too much about them and they are in few conversations. I am rather puzzled because they are some of the best stand mounts I've heard and they are the Proac D2s or D2r's

Are you not using your sub for 2 channel playback?

Your issue is pretty standard for any speaker at low volume because our hearing is much less sensitive to low frequencies. As the volume increases our ability to hear bass also increases, hence the, it's sounds better when it's louder, but even at 110 dB 40 hz will sound 12 dB quieter to us than 1K hz, and at 80 dB 40 hz will seem almost 20 dB quieter. So the lower the volume you are listening at, the louder you should be running your sub in relation to your B & W's

I should have been clearer. Yes, I am using the sub for music. I ended up purchasing the Dynaudio Evoke 20 speakers. Couldn't be more pleased. Clarity and sharpness are so much better than the B&W speakers I had.

Often overlooked for a stand mounter is the Vandersteen VLR's.  They offer a ceramic tweeter or you can upgrade to the in house made carbon fiber tweeter which is the same design as they use in their 70K Model 7's.  They are made to be close to the wall and are easy to set up.  I hadn't heard them until a year ago and I was in shock at how good they are.  Those are my ears, but he showed them with a modest Rotel integrated amp and then with a Sim Moon integrated (I think it was a Sim).  I loved how it scaled with better gear.  To me, that shows a great design.  

Lot's of good choices to audition as that's the only way you will really know. Good luck.
