Need to Downsize: Small Speaker Recommendation

Hi all,

I've had the Thiel 6's for many years and love them but moving to a much smaller space and they are just too big Have them paired with the Sonic Frontier 3 monoblocks and a Conrad Johsnson tube pre-amp. I've traded up in the Thiel line over 30 years so really love their sound (could do with a bit more bottom end but love the sound overall so i have stuck with them). So, looking for recommendations for small (even bookshelf) speakers. I realize i may have to get rid of the amps as well but for now want to start by identifying a pair of speakers i can live with.

Thanks in advance for any and all recommendations.

Are you *sure* the Thiels will not work in the new space? If I was in your shoes, I'd at least try them there and then make your decision.

If they turn out to not work, you might consider some Gallo Ref. 3.1s or 3.5s. They have a smaller footprint, exceptionally coherent sound, and fall well within your budget. Almost all of their reviews have been gushing, and I really love my 3.1s...
