Small size monitor suggestions

I am considering small monitors that will need to be placed fairly close to a wall. Amp is Cyrus 8 (70 watts). Initially I was thinking about Totem Model 1 Signatures, but they are not great close to the wall. Other possiilities include ProAc Tablette 8, Dynaudio Contour 1.4, Reference 3a Dulcet. Anyone have opinions on these? Are there other possibilities I have not thought of? Thanks for your help.

Narrow your choices to those that are front ported.

They're not monitors, but Totem Arro's work very well close to the wall, and they are just as (if not more so) unobtrusive as monitors w/ stands.

ATC's are exactly what you're looking for.

SCM7, SCM10, SCM12 or 20's, you could ditch the amp for active 10's and 20's. Sealed design, made to be placed close to a wall...<18"

Also Blue Sky System One 2.1, active with a subwoofer, again no amp required.

I'm an ATC dealer, but I had nothing to do with the fact they will suit your needs. :)
