Looking for non-boomy full range speakers


I welcome suggestion for the following: I have a small room (11*13) and want a full range yet "light sounding" speaker, floorstanding if possible. What I mean is I want frequency as low as sub-30 (27Hz would be nice) but bass and lower mids not too heavy, just there. Any ideas?
Currently running AP Yara and I need same "idea", just lower freq extension. BTW, I am trying to avoid the "speaker + sub" way......

I use a Linar 10, 5.1 integrated SS, sweet Mosfet.
I have had my share of good monitors (Electra 906, SF Signum, Triangle Titus) so I can always go back to the 45Hz and up sound and live with it...but you know what this hobby is all about, finding a solution where there may be none! I was almost there with Totem Arros but found the single 4" dangerously popping at lower volume and still, the lower end (sub 40) was missing.
My experience so far is that yes, a couple of 4.5"-5" max woofers work better than a 6.5", although size is not always an indicator of bass response.
I have to admit that short of the sub 35Hz, Audio Physic Yaras is the real deal and a proof that some Floortsanders were designed to sound good in small room. I may drop the quest and buy myself a tight sub, Yara or REL....but that means a defeat!!!!!
you room is 15*14...mine is 11*13...don't you think that this could negatively affect the result? I know we ar only talking a few feet less but I had in mind the 926 was fairly generous in lower mids?
Good point, i will think about it and try a loaner as I liked the 906 but wanted to go deeper....FYI, I had a pair of SF Concerto (older model) in that same room and the bass (or mid-low) bloated like hell....but the amp may have been two soft and sweet at the time also.
