Bookshelf Speakers with the decent bass

Looking for the bookshelf speakers with the decent bass that would sound nice in 17'x 12' room. Listening preference:
Smooth/Uptempo Jazz; Acoustic Jazz and Ambiental music.
So far I am using Focal 807W Speakers and the NAD C356DAC.
Good sound, just missing "that" lover bass (hate sub woofers).
I really like how NAD sounds, especially after I replaced the
stock Pre/Amp jumpers. Nice open highs.
Or, should I try Floor standing speakers. Thank you in advance
on yours opinions.

Check out the Nola boxer. If you decide to go with the boxer
you should also get the Sound Anchor loudspeaker stands. This is very important. This combination won "best of show" award at RMAF 2012. It was driven by a Rogue integrated tube amplifier.

"How about the Proac D2, or should I stay away from the
Proac since they require more powerful Amplifier.

I don't know if I'm too late but I just noticed that statement in your post. ProAc speakers sometimes look difficult to drive on paper, but in reality are not difficult at all. The impedance tends to stay consistent, and not drop too low. The NAD amp you have won't have any problem driving them.
