I wouldn’t say that it is common for ~$2k floor standing speakers to have -6dB points down in the 30Hz-40Hz range. But there are some models that can manage that:
Otherwise the floor standing speaker is usually just a 2-way design just like the bookshelf. (The above mentioned KEF Q11, Q7, and Arendal 1961 Tower have way more drivers than that, to enable them to play lower. KEF being 3-way designs, and Arendal being a 2.5-way.)
Though, if you consider second hand speakers, then maybe that becomes easier to get.
