What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?

I have a very small audio room, 16 ft (L) X 14ft (W) X 8 ft (H). What are my options if I want a floor standing loudspeakers? Of course price is an issue but maybe I can equate the price later on based on the performance of the speaker. I enjoy listening to almost all types of music using pass labs pre xp20 and power xa100.5 amps.

Take a look at the Vivid Audio v1.5. Very easy to work into a room but very dynamic and musically engaging. I use them with Aesthetix gear and absolutely love them. I also think for how they perform they are very fairly priced.

As a last resort you could get the Polk Lsi15. I promise not to tell.

Jerrypan-The Kef 203/2 is a world class speaker. Is lack of very deep bass an issue? Have you worked on room acoustics or considered a subwoofer?

I had a pair of those. Replaced them with a pair of Proac Response 1.5s. Can't honestly say the Proacs were better.

Dayglow:) I agree that kef 203/2 is a good speaker, considering the size of my room and perfect for my electronics. The acoustic treatment is of high level if not perfect. I have also compared kef with other expensive speakers in Hong Kong audio show and the audio quality is not really that far. Maybe I'm in the stage where I believe I can improve more but not to the extent of spending too much for a bit of clarity and punch. Thanks for all the inputs, happy listening.
