Speakers for new room

I am moving my sound system from a 25x20 foot room to a 19x13 foot room (actually looking forward to this since bigger room was so big everyone kept dumping their crap in there)

My present speakers need 2 to 3 feet from the back wall. That’s not really feasible in the new room.I've been looking at these 3 speakers.
Zu Audio DW6 the Superfly edition

Klipsch Heresy 4

Warfedale Super Linton

all it seems can be placed 10 to 12 inches from the back wall. 
looking for any impressions Audioners have had with these speakers

My 2 channel system consists of:

Rogue RP1 preamp 

Parasound 2125v2 power amp

Rega P6 Ania cart MCFono phono amp

Bluesound Vault 2

Topping D90SE DAC

AV123 Strata Mini front L&R speakers

I went from a large room like your old one to a 13.5’ x 22’ room. I ended up with Open baffles, reason is they can be placed close to the side walls due to their dispersion pattern and have less interaction with the side wall. I have mine, Tri-Art Audio Open 5 that are quite large, 5’ from the front wall (front of the baffle) and about 10” from the side walls with excellent results. Definitely have a look at OB’s or similar speakers for long narrow rooms.  

Another option is a speaker like the AudioNote’s AN line they are designed to be placed into the corners. Also sounds very nice.
