Which speakers would be a good upgrade in a small


I am currently using Hales Sig 2's. The rest of the equip is Rowland Model 8, CAT sig, Linn LP12 Val with a well tempered Arm and Benz Ruby 2. Cable is Highwire bi-wire.
I really like jazz, rock, classical. The Hales do the imageing thing very well and have great midrange and timbre, but lack bass of course.
I have to move into small room, appx.10x9 with a vault ceiling; wander what would work well in this size of room with little or no room treatment.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks everyone for your input. I will definitely try and hear the Eire's and the Gradients.
The Aerius is a speaker that I have had extensive experience with, since I owned a pair. They are nice but I now prefer dynamic drivers to electro's. Just a matter of taste I guess.
What I am trying to accomplish is the ability that the Hales have but in a small room. I am loath to give up the Hales, but they will not work in this room due to physical size. So, if I can repricate the overall depth and palpability of this speaker in this small room, I will be pleased. I will be sitting about five feet back from the speaker and the room will only allow the speaker to be seperated by about 5'.
Bass would be nice, but I do not really have it now, and I also do not want to give up midrange and imageing ability. Thanks again for all the suggestions.
