Wow... your workout sounds good. Perhaps the scale is not moving because you are building muscle?? You could still be buring fat. Anyway, I don't think your workout is a problem.
You could drop calories lower, but I'm not sure that is the answer. Your overall body composition may be improving so you would not want to mess with that. It might just take time.
If you need a change, you could do an Atkins induction for a couple weeks at the same calorie level... this would certainly affect your weight. It would involve replacing carb. calories with fat calories. This can easily be accomplished with addition of oils such as olive oil.
But if this is not the type of thing your willing to do, I would just give it a couple more weeks and that might allow you to see that you are improving.

Given that you have a bf of 6%, MPS, I'll gladly take any advice of yours.

Thanks, I did do Atkins at one point, and it worked great. I stopped, though, 'cause my cholesterol went too high. If I can get my LDL under control, I'll try it or Protein Power, which I liked better, again.
