Small speakers for a small room



Currently I use Linn Kan (type 4) speakers with an LFD Mistral amp.
At that time I couldn't afford the Linn Tukan speaker wich was my first choice.
My 3 options for an upgrade:
Linn Katan, Spendor S3/5se and the PMC DB1+.
I listen mainly to classical and jazz in a small room.
I like my Kans but something is telling me there is better.

There are some very good small monitors available, and a moderately wide price range. For example, the Totem Rainmakers offer a lot of performance for $900 (retail); the Paradigm Signatures are also very good, but cost more than twice as much as the Rainmakers ($2200); and the Sonus Faber Cremona offer both fine sound and gorgeous cabinetry, but at a significant increase in price. All of these speakers will do a fine job with jazz and classical (altho' large symphonic pieces may present a challenge if you want high volume levels). Can you offer some further clarification on your selection criteria and budget?
