speakers for 15' by 12' listening room?


Hello,
I know sound is subjective and the best way to decide is to listen to the equipment but I 'd like some input on speakers.
I live in a small apartment, my listening room is 15' by 12' and I don't crank up the volume too much.
My current speakers are Kef 104.2 ( they sound Amazing but are too big and the bass can be too much). I also have some Rogers LS3/5a in smaller bedroom and those are perfect there.
My stereo equipment consists of a CD Player Rega Jupiter, a Linn 5103 Preamp, 1 Linn Klout amp, 1 integrated amp VTL iT85 and 1 Linn Chakra amp (I switch amps depending on mood and music).
Ultimately, I would like to find a pair of compact speakers that don't need to be in the center of the room to sound good (the closer to the wall the better).
I listen to many different styles but mostly Jazz, Vocals, and Electronica.
The sound I'm looking for is non fatiguing like the LS3/5a but more full range like the Kef. Warm, dynamic and detailed even at low listening levels would be great!
Look & sizewise, I like Totem (Aro, Staff, Hawk and Model 1), Spendor S5e, Harbeth, (can't remember which 2 ways monitor), and Gallo reference 3.1.
I haven't heard any of them, I would rather not having to break the speakers in and since my budget is tight, I am looking at second hand market.
Any advice and recommendation will be highly appreciated, many thanks!

Had the same size deadish room. The Acoustat 3's finally gave me the low-mid's (high-bass) that was very attenuated. I've have JM Lab Daline's, Dahlquist Dq-10, 28's and many other's trying to alleviate that problem. The Dq-10 are by far the best soundstage though and I'd never leave them.
I have Vandersteen 1C speakers that I use in a room that is about the size of yours with a Rega Jupiter/Cursa/Maia setup. I have them centered on the long wall about 7 feet apart (with a couch in the middle) and 18 inches out into the room (although they can go back another 6 or 8 inches without getting boomy). They sound absolutely fantastic and represent one of the best values I am aware of in hi-fi. They are dramatically better than the Quad 11L speakers I previously owned.
Check out the Aerial Model 6 also. My room is only 15x10 with Martin Logan Aerius i's. - they work good in there, but not as well as my B&W 603's did, which was a 2 1/2 way floor stander that I thought had great low level resolution needed for my small room - I just couldn't get them to disappear. Like you, I'm also searching for something else, and from what I've read about the Aerial Model 6, they work very well in small rooms, and can disappear at low levels - they're just a little pricey - check out their web-site. I'm also considering the Spendor S5e
The Paradigm Signature S2s sound great in my 9 X 17 listening room. They image beautifully and provide a wonderful sound stage for such a small space. I'm currently running a pair of Quicksilver Silver 60s and the combination is amazing. I also have a Pathos Classic One II that's better on summer days when it's too hot to run the Q's.
