Best speakers for a small room? 10'X14'


Greetings all! I need some advice. I just moved my system into a "dedicated" listening room. Only problem is that it's definitely on the small side 10'X14'). I'm thinking about selling my Hales Concept 2's and finding something that's more appropriate for this small room.

It's unlikely that I'll be able to spend much (if any) more than what I'll get for the Hales (~$1,000?). So what's a good speaker (doesn't matter if it's a floorstander, monitor, planar) for this sized room? I'm afraid of buying anything that's ported (especially rear). What are your thoughts??

BTW - I have plenty of power (Classe DR-9), so I can drive just about anything.

Thanks for your help!

If you like Maggies, but have a small room, Thiels are a very good idea. You are un likely to find 2.3s for your price, but might well fing 2.2s, the 1.5 is also superb though has a little less bass punch if you listen to lots of Rock music.
