Mellow speakers for a digital piano

I have been trying to get my digital piano to sound more mellow instead of so sharp / tinny.

What I have been using are Focal CMS40 powered monitors and JBL LSR 305 powered monitors.
I get a nice clear sound but it is too sharp, yet.   I have tried EQ boxes and even that does not do it for me.

I hear piano sounds (internet) from various sources and I long for that sound from my piano.

I wish to find something I can put on a stand behind my piano and at ear level.

I have read things on this site that are encouraging but have no idea if what someone else likes is what I would like.    

Any thoughts ?

Yes, they will be much more mellow than the Focals, but not veiled. Give em a go. MD gives you 60 days to test them out.

Keep in mind you'll need some additional gear to get any sound out of those (passive) speakers. If you want to stay with active speakers and depending on your budget, you could also consider the KEF LS50 powered version. You will probably end up spending about the same amount by the time you add the cost for a preamp/amp combination to go with the Denton or any other passives.

I am willing to spend for the right solution .....

Are you saying that these will give me the "Warmth" of the Wharfedale option ?

Really? It takes $1800 worth of amplification to power some passive Dentons? I think not.
