need to down size to monitors

I recently moved into a place with a much smaller living room(15'x15')with a usable space of (11x11')due to walkways.so as a result my floor standing speakers (axiom audio m60)don't have enough room and look huge.I would like to get some monitors on stands. They need to be easy to place i.e. close to walls have good bass say down to about 40hz. I don't have room for a sub any more either. I listen mostly to classic rock and rock and I am getting into some acoustic folk.My budget is around $2000.

PMC's monitors are not front ported. They work well close to a wall (the DB1+ had wall brackets optional, not sure about DB1i).

Linn's current Majik monitor works very well against a wall and sounds excellent. Not sure about bass depth though.

Totem Arros work very well in a room that size, depending on what's driving them.

I listen to mainly classic rock, alt rock, and metal. I own Audio Physic Yara Evolution bookshelves. The need some space behind them, but they should work very well in a room that size. My old room wasn't much bigger. Not sure about bass measurements, but it goes low enough and tight enough for me to not want the hassle of integrating a sub.
