Hi. I'm looking for bookshelves to partner with a Valve Audio Exclame 100 amp. (Can't get floor-standers, the cat will scratch them.) Currently running Quad 11L but find them a bit too analytical & lacking in bass. I would like a more warm/smooth sound like SF Concertinos type sound, but with a stronger bottom end.
Am eagerly waiting to audition the new Monitor Audio RX2s (with proper 8" woofer, like in the old days).
Others brands on my shortlist include B&W , Dali , etc. 
Any other suggestions would be appreciated, thanks. Budget 6-8k. i.e. no Sonus Fabers for me.
Front end = Benchmark DAC1/Sony ES CD + LP12.
