Bookshelf speaker pairing with subwoofer


I have a pair of REL Ti9 subs in my dedicated listening room which is 12 x 17. I am looking for a pair of bookshelf speakers that would pair well with the subs. Searching on my own and watching reviews has made a choice even worse. So many to choose from. I mostly listen to jazz and blues with some classic rock thrown in. I have a good SACD collection and several dsd files. There are no audiophile stores close to me.

Any input would be appreciated.

+1 on Fritz. Great speakers that punch well above their price point.  I have a pair integrated with a pair of T5s

There are lots of suggestions offered above, but what is your budget?  Two more important factors:  What is your amplification and what sound characteristic is most important to you?

$5k tops. hard to describe sound characteristics because it is a personal thing. When I hear it I smile. What can I say. Same thing with wine. If I like it I drink it.

Never heard of Fritz. I will have to check them out also.

Agree that Fritz (made in USA) is worth checking out. the Fritz Carbon 7 SE MK2 is recently listed at $2.8K new on US audio mart. That’s a good value for an excellent speaker. It’s more of a full range stand-mount ported speaker with a larger 7" bass/mid driver than ATC SCM 7’s 5" unique driver which is definitely more centered at mid range and highs accuracy. More similarities than differences from an enjoyment standpoint, again, depending on one's preferences. Btw, I hit the wrong key in my "way too long" post on the SCM7. That speaker pair retails now at $1.6K, not $1.7, is sealed box, smaller and half the weight of the 32lb Fritz Carbon 7. The SCM 7 definitely needs a sub for bass extension below 40-50hz. The Fritz may not even need a sub, albeit still benefit from one. Both ATC and Fritz are very worthwhile manufacturers to explore.
