Alternative to my P3ESR


I have a pair of Harbeth P3ESR in my desktop set-up, powered by a Primaluna Dialogue Premium with KT150 power tubes. I love the imaging and mids, especially in acoustic music, but I miss the mid-bass. I have a Rel T5, but it's helping the lowest bass, not giving that mid-bass thump I am looking for. I tried a few solid-state amps but missed the tube sound - and they both felt fatiguing in comparison. 

Any suggestions on an alternative standmount at a similar price that I should consider for near-field listening? I'm about four feet from the speakers, they're three feet from the back wall.

What’s your budget, and are you looking for new or used?  Do you have size limitations?

Buying used, would like to stay under $2k or close to. They would sit on stands at ear height in front of my desk, so bookshelf monitor size would be ideal.

If you like the size of your Harbeths take a look at the Falcon Q7.  It’s right around 2k for a built pair with the gold badge and grills.  They are a larger cabinet and go significantly lower than the P3ESRs do.  They are 83db too I think but 15ohm.
