If I had to go vintage for the speakers, Klipsch Heresy perhaps or I would consider a pair of factory refurbished OHM Ls, C2s or Hs, if available from OHM Acoustics currently. Ls were my favorite small bookshelf speakers and Hs my favorites overall. C2s are in between with a slighty brighter tonality that can work well at lower volumes, more like the Klipschs.
Refurbished from OHM, if available, these cost from $600 to $1000 a pair, I believe.
You could do a lot worse than a pair of original OHM Walsh 2s for just a couple hundred likely used as well. These can also be upgraded later to the current modern drivers if desired.
