speaker recomendation

looking for ideas preferably for a mini monitor for low listening levels in a living room as a second system. although i know it is difficult, I would like to have a decent bottom end along with a high end not to bright(when no one is around i may occasionally play at higher volume for myself.) just a few of my thoughts have been the Taylor mini monitors or the Epos els-3. Would like to keep it at a budget of around 1500.

I have PSB Stratus Minis for a second system and love them. They have excellent non-fatiguing highs and can go surprisingly low. They are 4 ohm speakers with 86 db sensitivity and so need some solid power.

im using a musical fidelity x-150 integrated. would also consider a small floorstander if it would improve the bottom end over a monitor. a sub is out of the question as of now.

Green Mountain Audio Europa or Europa Max would be a great choice. 90 db effecient, first order crossover, dead quiet cabinet design and outstanding value by a first rate company. Vast amount of information on their website:

Nola Minis, if you can find them, are fantastic and only around $699. Open, dynamic and bass extends down into the 50s. For review:
