Near Field listening


Looking for suggestions and thoughts for the purchase of a pair of monitors for a small room. Associated equiptment will be a Music Reference RM10 mkll and a RM4 phono stage and a tt. I have owned the Linn Tukans and liked them fine and that is all the experience I have with monitors. I listen to a lot of Jazz and singer songwriter type music.
Thanks

Harbeths have come up a couple of times. Which models are you speaking of? I ask because in his review of the Compact 7s, Sam Tellig said they, "didn't like to be positioned in the nearfield. give them at least 8' from your ears; anything nearer and the treble might be localized at the tweeters." Can anyone comment? Thanks.
