High end bookshelf speakers for Small room

I have to downsize my listening room. Looking to get a pair of bookshelf speakers for a room size 13x14 which has furniture carpet and I plan to do some acoustic treatment if needed. Would love to get some subs as well. Currently I have rels510 which might be too much for this small room.. 

My audio chain - Aurender N20, dCS Rossini + clock, luxman509z amp. 

Music preference - Acoustic, rock, pop, piano, instrumental.. pretty much different genres. 

Sound preference - bold close to you vocals, clean detailed sound. Slightly warm is fine. 

Current candidates - TAD ME/CE, Joseph audio pulsar2, dynaaudio, Sonia Faber.. 

Any inputs here are much appreciated.. thanks in advance

Borreson is pretty nice even with the Chinese made cabinets on those entry level models... But I personally try to keep China stuff out of my hifi and my golf bag, I have enough Chinese made crap that I can't avoid

Look at JMR (Jean Marie Reynaud) out of France, they have some great stuff and I have a older pair for my desktop system, they sound so musical and non fatiguing, very smooth and I like that they are front ported (at least my Trente's are)... Underrated really

Or maybe the Kef Reference 1 Meta, but those are up around $9k list without the stands

The Borresen X1 or the Fleetwood Devilles come to mind. Oh and I have become a Sonus Farber convert, but I can’t say much about their bookshelf speakers.

All the best.
