Need speaker for a small space and close to wall

We are moving and I need to rethink my system for an 8 foot wall. The room is small and requires me to have the speakers within 12 inches of the wall. Listening position will be 9ft from the speakers and 2 feet from the rear wall. Budget is $3000. Amplification will adjust accordingly. I listen to all kinds of music. Lots of jazz, lots of folk and goth/electronica and soundtracks and throw in some rap and latin music.

I second the notion for the evolution acoustic micro one's.
For your price range & beyond nothing will come close to them.
Do yourself a favor, you will not be disappointed!

On this budget and for a small room I suggest going active instead. (I presume the budget includes new amplification too? )
e.g. Factory direct speakers from ScanSpeak from Moos audio or the ADM9s from Avi.
The Moos audio speakers are in pre-order status only but they show promise plus can you go wrong with ScanSpeak? I don't have much details about the connectivity options though so you have to contact Moos Audio directly.

One used speaker that I'm really liking that I have right up against the wall are the B&W Matrix 805 bookshelf speakers. I have them powered with a rebuilt SUMO Nine and to me this combo is great sounding. No fatigue whatsoever and bass is pretty tight to my surprise.
