Floorstanders for small room 10x10ft

I'm looking for a stereo setup with floorstanders for music (acoustic, classical & electronic dance music) & movies in my bedroom.

My criteria is that is has to have bass & slam for movies and dance music but also a great midrange and realism for acoustic music & movies...

The speaker need to be placed as close to the wall as possible (4-12" maximum). Where I live in Mexico most bedrooms are this small, even in 3bd villas. So it shouldn't overload the room.

I prefer not to go the subwoofer route (integration issues) and I don't need rumble bass for FX in movies but 30-35Hz would be nice.

I've been looking at Tekton Katz Meow V3, Schweikert VR-33 (too big?), GR Audio N3 and the Gallo Classico 3 (perhaps too short to reach over the bed)..

Any other suggestions for speakers and comments on the candidates are welcome.

For amplification I'll decide based on speaker choice between hybrid amps (Monarchy 160 or Van Alstine 400R) and maybe tubes (Decware TORII)

Question re: the Preludes. I had the Minuets and agree that Silverline makes excellent products. Just curious about placement in a square room for them or any of the other slim floorstanders. Would they sound best at an angle, centered off a corner, rather than straight off a wall?

I wish they'd changed the veneer to match the Minuet Supreme with that price increase. I would be inclined toward used if I were looking at them.

BTW, another option would be the Rega RS3. Heard RS5s recently and they're fantastic. The smaller ones would probably be better in the smaller space, although you have to be careful of bass issues, from what I've read.
