While the 40.1 definitely fit the bill in regards to sounding full bodied and forgiving, I'm not sure they'd be optimal for you given your limited placement considerations. I'd be concerned the bass would be over-emphasized and they'd sound boomy. If you can be flexible with speaker placement, I think they'd be a good fit for what you are looking for. I love mine and drive them effectively with a VAC 30/30 in a 15' x 21' room.
I have no experience with the Daedalus, but they do sound intriguing and have a very loyal following... but you'd have to buy new, as it's very rare that they come avaialable on the used market.
