Best monitor against wall

I have heard so many conflicting reports about this. Is there a monitor or narrow/smallish full range speaker of exceptional quality and sound that does not mind or even prefers to be very close to the wall behind it?

The Konus Essense is a similar (but more expensive) design that has been well reviewed. They are less picky about electronics or placement than any speaker I have owned. Spendor S3/5s also sound pretty robust for their size. Totem speakers might also work.
