Best Speakers for a small Nearfield room, budget at most $10000 (used is also ok)


Hi guys, I am a newbie here and am searching the best speakers in a small room (my room is about 13’ x 10’).
Consider a pair of bookshelf or small floor standing (like Magico S1 mk1?). Those speakers will be placed near the corner of the room, may be I will prefer a sealed case.

I listen to female vocals, jazz and light original sound tracks at a relatively low volume. Since I am transferred from a headphone system, what I really care is the musically and smoothness of the system. Any suggestions?

BTW, I am in USA now. What kind of brands that could be easily found in Usa?

Now I am looking at Magico a3 (There are multiple driver for a3, I am afraid it is an overkill for my room), Magico a1(seems good), Raidho xt1, xt2, used c1.1 ?

Floorstanders (with manageable bass for small room):

Focal Kanta 2
Vivid Kaya 45
Paradigm Persona 3F

Monitors:

Magico A1 (I liked the A3 but not heard A1 yet)
Yamaha NS3000 (have not heard the NS3000 but loved the NS5000)
TAD ME1 (have a lot of bass)
KEF Reference 1

I plan on using the following guys work to control the bass in my similar sized room. See virtual systems.

BTW - The KEF LS50’s would also be very good in your room. I had to acoustically treat the room for my LS50’s to sound great though.
