Best speakers under $2000 to match with a SET amp?


Hello all,
I live in a small NYC apartment my room is 11' deep, and 12' wide. I own a Unison Research S2K amp that can produce 15 watts ultralinear class a. It's linked with Audience AU24 cables to a Meridian 596 DVD and Von Schweikert VR1 speakers. Time for an upgrade in the speaker department. I listen to a lot of rock, samba, funk, jazz, disco, electronic, and hip-hop. However, I'm not a total bass freak. My room is too small, and I listen at normal levels, afterall I have lots of neighbors. I'm looking for tone, natural tone. That's why I bought a SET amp in the first place. Now I need the speakers to match any ideas?
Thanks to all!

Galante Rhapsody's are a superb match with my 8 watt SET amps (Disclaimer - I am currently selling my Galantes as my SET amps are going into storage for a while). I'd normally tell you to consider Klipsch K-Horns or LaScalas, but both are too big for your room. You could use vintage Cornwalls in that space for much less than $2K. I'd also highly recommend considering Silverline Sonatinas. You can get a used pair in your price range, and they'd likely be a great match with your 15amp SETs. You should also try to solicit answers specifically from those with your amps as that interface is critical. I have no experience with your amps - I'm using 8 watt 300B SET amps.
