Recommendations for Speakers that can be used close to the rear wall.


I am looking to replace my Magnepan 1.6 speakers with smaller speakers that can be placed close to the rear wall. Due to a move to a new home my listening room does not allow me to place my speakers the recommended distance from the rear wall. I am limited to just a few inches at most and I do not want to move them back and forth as I now do with my Magnepans. My room is large (17’ x 26’x 9’) with more open space next to it. The speakers are placed along the 17’ wall. I use a solid state Belles 150a Hot Rod amp with Sonic Frontier tube preamp, Dac and phono. I would like to limit the cost to $3,000/pair. I want the speaker to be no more than 48” high. I listen to various types of music ( rock, jazz, classical) and don’t play my music loud. I do not need a lot of bass for my musical enjoyment. I like the sound of the 1.6’s especially the way they play jazz vocal music, but am open to considering other types of speakers. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thank you all for your input. In our previous home, I had a separate listening room that allowed me to position the Maggie’s in the optimum manner. That worked for eighteen years. My/our new listening room/living room is set up the only way possible. No alternative except for moving the speakers back and forth ( three feet or more for the Magnepans). I would rather keep the 1.6’s rather than lose sonic quality. Maybe that is the way it is meant to be, but I will investigate other options that you have recommended. 

Some Guru QM 10 speakers on eBay for I think $500. They are super cool speakers and need to be on the wall and or corner. Surprising bass and wonderful midrange. Will not play super loud. Got a bigger Guru for $2600 regular like 10k. I bet they are pretty awesome. 
Boy that’s tough. OHM’s were my first thought too. The original Wilson Duette MKI’s were designed to be placed near a wall and do it pretty successfully but I’m just not sure you’re going to find them within your budget. I did see a pair on USAM for under 4K without stands earlier this summer. Best of luck.
Years ago, for a Maggie customer, I installed spikes in the metal stand straps by drilling holes then tapping them. Worked very well. I was thinking maybe you could install office chair type wheels and just wheel them out from the wall for listening. Or maybe use something like Herbies:    https://herbiesaudiolab.com/collections/loudspeaker-rack-decoupling-and-isolation/products/threaded-stud-glider?variant=12651505680439
Also; some LInns, Gradients, Thiel Powerpoints, Vandersteen VSM-1's. I'm sure there are others. Some of the above might best be used with sub-woofers.
