Speakers for a small room


I am looking to build a list. What would you say are the best speakers for a small room? Why? Price is up to 6.5k new or used. Room is 11ft x 16ft with 7ft10 ceilings. Thanks!

I have a room that is 10'6" X 10' X 8'. I searched, tried and tweaked, but my ATC SCM19s sound terrific in that small space. I listen near field so bass reverb is minimized. They articulate very well with my Prima Luna Dialogue Premium HP power amp using KT150s. ATCs have no bass port making location much less of an issue. I don't use any EQ to muddy the sound either.

Eddie,    used merlin VSM
black magic speakers is all you need  OK an extra interconnect also  
I have a similar size room.... McIntosh amplification...try some Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor M's.  A sleeper in the Audiophile community and perform way over their price point.  I shocked a lot of my audiophile buds with mine.  $3500 - $4k with stands.

will soon upgrade my 12s to 19s or 20s. For the SL driver. Might at the same time need a bigger desk. Yes, you like to find another better, but always come back to them. And the easyness with wich you can integrate a sub, preferrably from the same brand.
