I think Ryder is on the right track here. However, even before doing room treatments, I would suggest playing around with speaker placement and listening position. Given the room size there may not be much you can do, but it is free and completely reversible. If you can set up the room to listen in the near field, that may give you the sound you want. If you cannot get the sound you want with position changes, room treatments would be the next step. As others have said, the Harbeth/Naim combination is a good one. I would try to get them working in your room before spending money on different components.
Amp Suggestions for Harbeth C7es3
I have a pair of C7 pairing with Supernait. In my current room (8'x10' room with speakers placed against 10' side wall), the combination is a bit too expansive. I would appreciate some opinions if I were to change the amp to get a little more high frequence air and better sound stage and sound image definitions. I mostly listen to Classical and Jazz music, occasionally vocal and pop, thus I don't mind losing a bit bottom end punch, as long as the bass definition doesn't suffer. I am also not ready yet to jump to the tube camp yet. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
