Small size monitor suggestions

I am considering small monitors that will need to be placed fairly close to a wall. Amp is Cyrus 8 (70 watts). Initially I was thinking about Totem Model 1 Signatures, but they are not great close to the wall. Other possiilities include ProAc Tablette 8, Dynaudio Contour 1.4, Reference 3a Dulcet. Anyone have opinions on these? Are there other possibilities I have not thought of? Thanks for your help.

What's your budget?

I have tried about every monitor there is. I have a very small room and need the speakers no more than 18" from rear wall.
The following all work well in this situation:

North Acoustics Spirits,really nice speakers
northacoustics.com
Neat Petites
Joseph Audio RM7si
Linn Tukans, Katans, or Kans
AVI Neutrons
ATC as mentioned, but they need volume to sound their best
Aerial Acoustics Model 5
Von Schweikert VR1
Naim N-Sats
Spendor LS3/5

There are more, but these should get you started.
