Stand Mount Speakers

It seems like there is an endless amount of options these days, some good and some not so good. I've been using a very clean set of B&W 602 S3 speakers for quite some time. Great when the volume is up, but not so great at the low end. I'm in a 1300 sq ft condo now and the main room is about 800 sq ft. Current equipment is as follows:

Emotiva XMC-1 Processor Emotiva BasX 5 channel amp Emotiva Airmotiv 8 Sub Thorens TD 145          Mac Mini Apple TV

I listen to a lot of vinyl, multiple genres and stream some music and movies.

I'm looking for bookshelf/stand-mount speakers. Was leaning toward the Focal Aria K2 906 or the Dynaudio Evoke 20. Other recommendations are greatly appreciated.

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.
