small speakers for small room


hello, i would like to set up a bed room system, and hope that you can give me some advice

Currently I have AQ dragonfly USB DAC, a musical fidelity X-A1 vintage int. amp (50W*2), now I am looking for passive speakers

My bed room is very small (2M*3M), so the speakers cannot put too far from the wall (~20cm). And I am looking for small one, less wide than 17cm.

My music taste is mainly pop music and electronic music (kraftwerk, pet shop boys..); but i listen to jazz, rock and classical sometimes too. I dislike bright sound (from the experience of using monitor audio).

My budget is <1200 USD, I have shortlisted the following:
Proac tablette series
PSB imagine mini
Spendor SA1
Rega RS1

I dont mind to use vintage stuff too.
Could you give me some advice? I know it is a great space constraint though.

Thanks a lot in advance.

For desktop use you'd be hard presses to beat a used pair of NHT M-00 powered monitors. Designed for near field use
Today I went to a shop which sells both silverline minuet and rega RS1

silverline: very dynamic, fast, excellent to play percussion, but too bright in high freq., the vocal is very clear

rega: not as fast and dynamic, but i guess given the size, it is OK, just silverline is superb. not bright, vocal and piano is warm sound. then i played vocal jazz patricia barber, rega touched me immediately while silverline cannot.

I would say minuet is an amazing tiny speakers. but i still choose rega RS1, because vocal is more important to me then dynamic or details.

thanks for the advice above, cheers
If you already purchased the Rega RS1, CONGRATULATIONS! I've been eying on those two speakers for a long time. Give us your first impression when you have a chance. GOOD CHOICE, Enjoy!
now pairing with musical fidelity X-A1, typical British sound as you may expect. warm vocal, no punchy or deep bass. but i have not bought spikes yet.

it seems that RS1 can really put closed to the wall although it is rear ported

I dont know why RS1 is not covered by hi-fi magazines
As I said above, the Rega bookshelf speaker was designed to be placed right against the wall. Once you get comfortable with the speaker, you will be surprised with the amount of real bass that it delivers. The Rega bookshelf used to get a decent amount of press coverage in the UK magazines, but not much now. I think it may have to do with price, as the speaker has bone from roughly $500 USD to $700 USD in a few years.
