Speaker suggestions wanted


As any audio enthusiast who has ever moved can likely attest, new and smaller rooms can be a challenge. I would be grateful for any suggestions on possible speakers that would be suitable in the following scenario. My new listening room measures 21'x 10', and the spkrs need to be on the long wall, approx 2.5'out,with the rt spkr approx 2' from the side wall and a distance of approx 7' between the spkrs. The listening position will be approx 7' from the center axis. I want to spend $1500.(used)on a pair of floorstanding spkrs with a freq. range no < an in room 35Hz. I listen to lo-fi as well as hi-fi recordings. Spkrs I've owned and have been moved by include Spica TC-60's, Dunlavy SC-IV's, and a pair of Thiel 2.2's, (which I respected yet could never quite warm up to). Any speaker suggestions befitting the above would be most welcome.

Fly fish nz. C, In response to your questions: Yes the left spkr will be 12' from the side wall (with a desk in between)
Also the listening position will be 7' from the midpoint between the speakers,not the room. Thankyou for your Dunlavy SM-1 suggestion. Why is it do you think that this model (yr 2000 model according to audiogon)is not on the Dunlavy website? Have you heard them? Thanks D.
Maxgain,Anyone, Have you ever listened to thiels with Rowlands? specifically the 1.5's with the concentra integrated?
Resuviator, I never have listened to Thiels with the Roland, so I can't comment.
R.,
Hmmm, it seems that Dunlavy has significantly changed its website within the past few weeks. I seem to recall that a local company in CO. purchased DAL and perhaps they have changed names of speakers or consolidated the line, e.g., I was unable to find any mention of the Dunlavy speaker cables or interconnects. On the other hand, I checked a few Dunlavy retailers, and they still offer the SM1's as current.

If you are interested in learning more, you could do a search here and Audioasylum.com on sm1, and check out user reviews at audioreview. I have owned the speakers for about 2 years, and you can find my impressions at Audioreview, which by coincidence I filled out a few days ago.

In certain respects, your room configuration will pose some difficulties because of the differences in distance from side walls, but I have found that by varying the relative distance from back to side walls, I was able to overcome a similar, albeit less difficult, challenge (one of my side walls is a 1/2 wall between kitchen and dining/living room). For example, by making the distance to back walls relatively smaller, imaging became tighter, perhaps because the reflected wave off the back wall (which IS symetrical in my system) became relatively stronger than off the side walls (which are not perfectly symetrical). No matter which speakers you choose, something you may wish to consider.

R. FYI, per an ad on this site, Dunlavy changed the name of the SM1 to SC-IIa, and the only change is cosmetic. I would have been surprised if the new owners would have dropped the SM1 since I have never read any negative comments from anyone who has heard the speaker. The wood facing on the new speaker would be nice, but I use the grills on my SM1,s because I was told by Dunlavy that is how they are tested and voiced.
