Falcon M10 probably worth a look. They’ve got a bit of BBC DNA about them.

Bit late to the party. LS6s should work very well eith Naim amps. Linn Kans- sort of 3/5a clones were very musical and exciting. That was with a Nait 3 mind. I used AVI Biggatrons for a while. They sounded fantastic. Don't see them much these days and when you do, they always seem to be in black ash finish but, hey! that might be your taste?

Anyone heard the Graham audio Chartwell LS6? this is just idle musings but once the DIY has ended and fiscal/work stuff sorted i’m looking to indulge myself and sorting out the Hi-Fi which will be done in stages and likely over a few years.
I have a pair of stands made from heavy gauge box section/plate that were made for me by my father, they are of serious mass and not the pressed steel of the usual atacama stuff, would like to keep using these if possible but some of the standmounts are a bit tall from the likes of Harbeth/Spendor but the LS6 looks like the right size and has bass.
Aesthetics are a consideration so ugly modern floorstanders are out of the question however good they sound so no Bowers & Wilkins or Mourdant Short, I’m not after an LS3/5A either.
Endgame is hopefully Naim 72/140, turntable better than my rega P3, £300-£500 MC cart, ugly streaming box hidden away and a pair of speakers that have more bass than my current Leema Xero’s, most of this will be ex-dem/used as there’s plenty of audiophiles that can’t resist something new as they chase the holy grail.
No idea if the Naim/BBC combo will work but I guess cartridge choice will be key.
Any other small box but bigger than an LS3/5a that should be on my radar?
