Hunt for new floor standers


Having sold my speakers, I’m in the hunt for a new pair of floor standers. I’m stepping up my game from the PSB Silver i’s that I had for years. I’d be interested in hearing from fellow Audiogoners about their suggestions for 2 channel, audio only towers. I’d like good bass response and prefer not to invest in a sub. Having said that, high end clarity is a must as well. Currently I’m using a tubed Rogue Super Magnum 99 preamp and a SS Belles 150A Hot Rod amp. In short time I may opt out of the Belles amp but for now it’s stays. I’ve auditioned the KEF R700 and the Sonus Faber Chameleons and liked them both but I’m not sure how either would play with my rig. My budget allows for mid $2K max and I’m OK with used equipment that’s been well taken care of. Insightful input is appreciated.

I recently bought a pair of Fyne Audio F501s and I'm shocked by how good they sound for a mere $1800. Mine are in a small-ish treated and dedicated room and powered by a pair of Schiit Aegirs. Plenty of out put and loads of bass. The latter I calmed down with the help of a DSPeaker Anti-Mode 2.0 in my application. 
I love my Dali Mentor 6 floorstanders and I’m amazed that you can get them used for well less that $2K. Lots of bass, detailed but not shrill at all. The newer Rubicon 6s are one step closer to the Epicon series that first got me interested in Dali. You can find used Rubicon 6s for around $2.5K. 
I think the Suncoast Audio dealer now sells the Fyne brand.  Recent reviews of the smaller ones (300 series) have been very positive, and they don't seem too expensive.  Might be worth a listen.
The best bbass I ever got from a floorstanding speaker was the kef R107/2 I sold for $1000 last year including the kube. I needed the space.
Usher makes a really good product managing to be musical, easy to drive and transparent. I also had a pair of revel f52's I sold for $2k that had I had the proper amplification I may have kept... the tweeter in that speaker seemed a bit cheap. I've owned like 5 different pair of kef's and the higher up the food chain the worse they sound with average components. My q5 sounded better than my r105/3 when connected to my ht receiver. something to consider.
Thanks to everyone who spent the time to respond to my post. After being without speakers for 2 months and looking at a long self-imposed stay at home protocol, I pulled the trigger and bought a pair of Monitor Silver 500's. I'm sure I'll be happy with them. I learned a lot about the current speaker market and how much it has changed since the last  time I was looking. The choices are astounding and once I began the search process, I fell into a rabbit hole of details. There are a lot of well received choices out there these days. In the end I chose the Monitors because I was hard pressed to find anything really bad about them and they  are said to have good bass response which was a criterium for me. This was the first time I bought audio equipment without an audition; in part to my location but more directly because of the COVID19 pandemic with related closures of non essential businesses and the shelter in place protocol. I'll come back here with a review of my initial response to them. To all, thanks again.
