KEF for Near-field?

I currently have KEF x300A for my desk.

I'm looking for a great near-field solution, and am open to thoughts. I'd rather something easy I can buy easily.

Options: I do already own a Peachtree Sky & Audioquest Bi-Wire Cables. I suppose I could move it into the LR (or attempt to sell, but the 300/R3 I can literally pop into place). 

KEF R300: $1,200 (Current prices on sale). 
R3: $2,000 (Worth the $800 premium over R300's?)
LS50 Wireless: $2,000 (Seems ideal; but scared of failure)

... nearfield is that listening area where the direct sound is greater than the room reflected sound
I can’t imagine a domestic scenario where reflected sound could be greater than the direct sound. For that to happen, I think you’d have to repeal the Law of Conservation of Energy.

Unless, maybe, you’re using Bose 901s.
