Looking for non-boomy full range speakers

I welcome suggestion for the following: I have a small room (11*13) and want a full range yet "light sounding" speaker, floorstanding if possible. What I mean is I want frequency as low as sub-30 (27Hz would be nice) but bass and lower mids not too heavy, just there. Any ideas?
Currently running AP Yara and I need same "idea", just lower freq extension. BTW, I am trying to avoid the "speaker + sub" way......

I don't know anything about your amp, but Revel F-30 (not its replacement, the F-32), Aerial 6, or if you can stretch your budget, the Dynaudio Special 25.

Good monitors (the 25's) would be safest in a smallish room like that -- you could always add a sub, but probably wouldn't need one.

Magneplanar speakers don't boom, but they don't go real low either, although it often sounds like they do. If boom is the primary consideration, consider Maggies.

i can't name any slender, high end tower that 'does' boom in the bass.

gershman acoustics avant garde rx-20! they go down to 24 Hz and can be had for around $2500-$2800 on the used market. i own a pair and they are far and away the best speaker i've ever heard / owned. they can be tight and powerful yet refined and delicate. a true gem and a real sleeper.
