Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room


I know that this is a tough one, because speakers are so subjective.  My dedicated 2 channel listening room is only 10ft x 10ft.  I listen to mostly jazz and rock.  I currently use a Plinius SA100 Mk III (recapped and upgraded) driving Joseph Audio RM25XL's.  I'm thinking of upgrading and was wondering what speakers would be a good upgrade for a small listening room.  I like the Joseph Audio sound, but want more.  I was thinking of Pulsars or maybe Perspectives.  First, is my room too small for floor standing speakers? Second, what other speakers in the $8-10K range used would be a good fit in a small room?

Audiotroy, my dedicated room is small and square (14x14) with some alcoves that do allow for less bass boom. My main problem was not bass, but 1st order reflections. I did not blow a lot of funds to treat with panels. Less than $1000 spent to cover all 1st reflection points and no bass traps needed. Best money I've ever spent in audio.
Room correction helps but it will not solve the problem.  It won't stop the room from having resonant frequencies.  If you eq the peaks flat it will sound weird because you have to make huge cuts.  Bass traps will actually reduce the peaks/valleys of the room.  Room correction can't do that.
AudioTroy you just lost your final bit of credibility.  Room correction WILL not fix what bass trapping can fix.

Two completely different things.

Hysterical.
Um, sorry @Contuzzi - EQ is OK, but not as good as bass traps AND EQ. 

At the very least, EQ can cut out the severe peaks (20 dB is not exaggerating), allowing you to raise the overall level of the subwoofer to better match the main speakers. It's not ideal, since the overall problem of energy lingering too long remains, and it's impossible to fix nulls this way alone. 

Still, EQ alone offers major benefits, without necessarily achieving reference quality. 

Best,
