modest towers with high WAF for living room?

Looking for opinions on this one. I've been running with Paradigm Studio-20s (V5) for over a year and want to upgrade. This is for our living room, 100% 2ch music. The Studios have been a nice intro into quality speakers. Now, I'm looking for something with a bit more bass presence plus, I want to get away from speaker stands.
My living room is large, 14X24', but we tend to listen at low-mid levels ... jazz, blues, classical, folk, some rock. I don't blast or need "wall thumpers".

I really want these to be nice, attractive, to get buy-in from the wife! ; )

Budget? Well < $2K preferrably, $2500 max.

My priorities: high WAF, sonic upgrade from the Studio20s, modest size ... don't want them to dominate the room.

The Selahs I've heard are lovely, though 2500 might not get you into the floor standers.

Fritz Carbon 7s excellent, and should hit your price point.

North Creek another lovely choice you could probably make work with a bit of assembly.

Fritz Carbon 7s are bookshelves.

I'm pretty sure Fritz builds them as towers as well. If you like the sound, give him a call.
