If you like the Wilson sound the above mention of Duettes might work. I have heard the Harbeths 7ES3 with your new amp and it was a great match. Also the Merlin TMS and Focal Be 1007 would be great choices in a smaller room. I have moved from a large floor standing speaker to smaller speakers and you will miss the full range of the puppy 7's but a good monitor speaker will simply disappear in the room. Remember you can go down the street any time and listen to great live music. You have the best of both worlds.
Speaker for low volume listening with high WAF
It's that time of life when the large home is no longer needed and a New Orleans French Quarter condo is more exciting. So I'll be saying good-bye to my Wilson watt puppy 7's, wonderful "Big Mac" MC2000 (get the tubes right and this amp is incredible), Hovland HP100, Dodson DAC, Sony SCD-1, Lector CDP 7TL and mucho other stuff I spent years perfecting with tube rolling. Now I'm looking for a very good speaker system that will complement a Luxman L-590AII integrated amp along with a single box cd player. I don't particularly like speakers that are overly warm but prefer accuracy, clarity, wide soundstaging and musical dynamics which the watt pup 7's serves up with the right equipment. I would be interested in hearing from others who live in smaller spaces and share a similar musical taste and bought speakers that mirror my musical taste. Prior to the watt pups (I've owned the 6 & 7's) I had ML Prodigy and Quad ESL 63 stats (fast & transparent but low WAF).
