Yes, they've been discontinued. Think they had too much overlap in their compact floorstanders. I don't know if you're into mahogany, but Totem cabinet finishing is top notch. The mahogany is gorgeous in person.
I paid $2200 USD after tax, so at ~$1500 USD for those with free shipping? I'd say that's a great buy. As are the Sky bookshelves they have on sale. Same drivers and crossover, just smaller cabinet.
They're very compact, too, here's a photo for reference: B&W 607s and LS50 Meta's on 24" stands.

Totem? They're all over Canuck Audio Mart and I think they'd suit your listening preferences. They definitely are not bright up top. I have the same preferences as you and I really, really love my Totem's. Out of all of the things I own that I get bored of very quickly, be it bicycles, watches or whatever else, my Sky Tower's are the only thing I can't bring myself to let go of and switch out.
Should work well with your Marantz, also.
