Best bookshelf for House Music

Hey guys. Please, just help me to pull the trigger. I have a list of the speakers I'd buy. They must to be all small but strong and powerful bookshelves to play House Music.Feel free to suggest another model/brand. I know most of you guys would say I must go for floorstand speakers but I have no space.

Thats the list Im considering:

- PMC DB1i

- Proac Studio 100 or 115 ( maybe a used Response D1)

- Dynaudio Focus 110A

- Spendor SA1

- Harbeth ( any model which is on the same range of the above)

- B&W CM5 or PM1 ( I've heard they are not that good for the type of music I do like but I can consider)

- Dali (I just like so much the Ikon 6 tower so I could get a Ikon 1 or 2.. but maybe they are too big and not as strong as the others. I just considered them because I can get them cheap ).

- Monitor Audio GX100(new gold series)- some people said MA is not the best for that type of music but..



Please, let me know your guys sincere opnion.



Regards

Ricardo

Depending on budget, I'd vote for one of the LSA 1 variants. I'm using the Statements in my home theater. Outstanding value for money, in my opinion.

It's unfortunate that you can't do small floorstanders. There's a pair of LSA Statements on Audiogon right now for an unbelievable price due to minor shipping damage. Someone is going to get a huge bargain. (Disclaimer: these were mine. Fedex strikes again).

For a fraction of the cost of most suggestions here you could buy some Klipsch Quartets. They are large and ungainly, but with any decent amp (I use 12wpc or less) House Music will live in your house. My neighbor said on my deck, with Forte IIs, it sounded like a club he was at in the islands recently (he meant that in a positive way).
Someone has them listed here for about $400 I think. Great budget holdover to compare "real" speakers to while you shop.
Unrivaled party sound, I enjoy my setup with all sorts of music.
