Mini monitors?

Considering a 2nd system: Speaker recommendations please? Small foot print is a must, sound capability obviously, cost is less of a concern except for the truly outrageous. So far have looked at ProAc, Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor, Harbeth (too big), Dynaudio. Anything you wish to recommend? I listen to mainly jazz & blues, including fusion, some rock, funk, occaisional classical...so needs to be an all arounder if you will, and play well at low volumes

From your list, I have been happy with the ProAc 1SC's, supported by a decent subwoofer.

I dunno if the Green Mountain Callisto is too big but man they sound awesome, I have not heard every monitor out there, but this cabinet simply isnt there. I hope if size works for you that you atleast look into them, another less atractive monitor is the Eminent Technology LFT 10, it is a ribbon hybrid and it sound awesome, but isnt the best looking, hell it might be the worst but a grill could be made easily....clarity is this speaker strength.

You might consider a high efficiency/SET combo. Little comes close at low volumes. How about the Omega speakers? Cheap and musical.
