Floor Stander with Small Footprint 7K - 15K

SAF issue requires an elegant floor stander with a small footprint (narrow and deep is good). 2-way or 3-way okay. Room is 15d x 30w x 10h. SimAudio Moon 600i has enough power to drive pretty much anything well. Don't suggest a KEF Blade. That won't fly.

My music tastes run all over the place but I do favor impeccable vocals, cellos and trombones, and bass that is clearly musical though not necessarily earth-moving. That being said Led Zeppelin and orchestral music have to have impact.

Your thoughts, AudioGon-ers? Thank you in advance

Take a look at Nola KO; I just moved from soundlab m2's to these and they sound very close to the m2's buy using the open baffle design for the midrange and tweeters.
They are available in cherry and black and the workmanship is awesome.

If buying new, the Joseph Audio Perspectives, Vandersteen Quatro or Treo, and Reference 3A Grand Veenas would be at the top of my list. If used maybe Rockport Mira or something from Verity Audio. Best of luck.

I bought a pair of Proac Response D-40r in Rosewood. I think they look and sound great. Yu can look at my system for pictures. They should work fine in a room the size of yours.

Jkmnop,
You seem to like KEF. The Blade is probably beyond your budget. But the Reference 3 is not. I understand that it's retail price is in the $13k range. Other options to look would be the PMC Fact.8 or Twenty.26.
As Zd542 mentioned above, Audio Physic are also nice speakers.
