Afraid of too much bass...


I will soon be moving into a smaller house, where my listening room will be 13 X 18. With a room that size, would I be better off with standmounters or full range speakers?
The reason I ask is because I sometimes think that with a room that small, full range speakers might provide too much bass. As I don't have lots of space for placement due to the size of that room, which is better?
Right now I have Focal JM Lab Chorus 816V, but I am looking to change them anyways in order to get something with richer mids, maybe a textile dome for smoother highs. My amp is presently Creek Evo, but I am very tempted by the Creek Destiny. CDP is Rega Apollo.

Main question: standmounters or full range, independently of the amp issue.

Thanks everyone for your input!

You have fine speakers with smooth highs. They are a bit finicky about placement in a room though. I would say try something other than creek amps first.
