Best Bookshelf Speakers for "more" than near-field listening


Hello, I am looking to choose one of several small bookshelf speakers that I own, to pair with either a Sansui AU-D7 or Peachtree Nova 150.  Will be streaming through a WiiM Ultra. Will mostly be listening to classic rock, prog and a little jazz (all at moderate volumes).

 

Options are: 

Ascend Acoustics Sierra 1

Proac Super Tablette

Focal Chorus 806V

Solus SC-6

 

Will be sitting about 8-10 feet away and they will be on stands about 8' apart.  There is open space to the sides and the room has high vaulted ceilings.  Larger floor standers not an option at this time.  I realize that what matters most is how they sound to me, which I will check out, However I won't be the only one listening and am also interested in your insight as to which of these might perform best in such a setup.  Thanks!!!

@soix  nailed it ….. full stop. 

It’s a could-not-be-any simpler in-house A-B-C-D direct bakeoff exercise,  just waiting to be implemented.

Hello johnnotkathi!  Golden Ear BRX  was my chooice for my small  recording studio. They work very well in deed.  Happy Listening!

ATC SCM7.

 

I've had in the following order, each a discernable upgrade;

Jamo Cornet V40

Klipsch RP 500M

Kef IQ1

ELAC UniFi UB52

ATC SCM7

 

This in a 2.2 system with dual 10 Klipsch Subs using a Mini DSP SHD as an Xover.  The ATC's will play louder, and needed zero EQ to work in my room.
