Downsizing for Blade 2 and hunting for smaller floor standers

I’ve been extraordinarily impressed with Ascend Acoustics Sierra Towers with the RAAL ribbon tweeter. They are easily driven by most amps, including tube amps, and the impedance never dips below 5 ohms, nor does it swing wildly. The company is small, U.S.A., and run by nice, talented people. They have a trial period. I prefer these to others I’ve had, including ML 60 Xti, Focal 936, Dynaudio Evoke 30. They are wonderful. 

What’s your budget?

Sounds like you have the need a new toy disease. The Blades are great speakers. If you really like them it will be hard and costly to find a superior replacement. Remember since even good speakers vary a lot it matters that you pick one that has the pluses you need and doesn't have anything that bothers you. In an imperfect world balancing all the qualities of speakers that's a hard thing to do, especially if you convince yourself you need to find new speakers. Better to  live with ones you love and audition speakers over time with no commitment to buy and wait til you come across one that grabs your attention(and then take your time auditioning it over time). 

I’m lusting after the new WB Act 3zero, as an owner of Vectors.  Price is gonna be north of the Blades, I suspect.

(Note to self:  cross the Adams off my short list.)

The LS60 is to big of a jump down, but you might try the Reference 3 or Reference 5’s.
