Speaker vs. Room Size

Need advice on type and size of speaker for room size.
Room: 10'X 14' X 7.5'H. I mostly listen to "unplugged" style of music and some rock. I don't have a lot of money to spend but I don't want that standing in the way of excellent sound...! I hope to purchase the speakers and build the rest of the system around them. I live in an area where it is hard to audition so I need to narrow my search. Much thanks for any and all help.

Any good speaker (probably stand mounted) that does not have bass lower than about 40 HZ should be fine. The B&W 805s would be great as Lev335 recommends. I have a pair of PSB Stratus Minis in a second system that I can also highly recommend-- not as refined as the B&Ws probably, but also less expensive.

Some years ago, I put Vand. 2Ces in a 12 X 14 room, and it was mostly a mistake. These fairly large speakers only sounded decent at low volume levels. Cheers. Craig
