High end bookshelf speakers for Small room

I have to downsize my listening room. Looking to get a pair of bookshelf speakers for a room size 13x14 which has furniture carpet and I plan to do some acoustic treatment if needed. Would love to get some subs as well. Currently I have rels510 which might be too much for this small room.. 

My audio chain - Aurender N20, dCS Rossini + clock, luxman509z amp. 

Music preference - Acoustic, rock, pop, piano, instrumental.. pretty much different genres. 

Sound preference - bold close to you vocals, clean detailed sound. Slightly warm is fine. 

Current candidates - TAD ME/CE, Joseph audio pulsar2, dynaaudio, Sonia Faber.. 

Any inputs here are much appreciated.. thanks in advance

Two stand mount monitors really stood out to me at last year's Florida Audio Expo. The TAD's you mention and the Borrison X1 (a little cheaper option.)

For my taste, if I were looking for a stand mount, I'd consider the Fleetwood DeVille. I've listened to it several times at a HiFi shop near me, Northern Audio in Pitt, PA, so impressively musical and balanced. If you are anywhere near Western PA do yourself a favor and go see Mark at Northern Audio, seriously great guy!

If you can find a place to audition them, I'd suggest looking into Marten speakers, from Sweden. I've got a pair of stand-mount Parker Duos, which are superb even without the diamond tweeter upgrade....

Sonus Faber make a number of stand mounted speakers worthy of your electronics. They are incredibly musical and beautiful.
