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

audionewbie,

 

I have AV123 Strata Mini front L & R speakers now.

Staying with Klipsch, Wharfedale and Zu Audio because they are what I can actually get a chance to listen to.

I’ll be interested to know your opinion on the Zu.  I have a pair of Union 6 and think they are wonderful.  What separates them from the Klipsch speakers I have listened to is their coherence and clarity. That’s the advantage of a full range driver.  It results in a speaker that disappears and lets you hear deeply into the recording.  I have not listened to the Dirty Weekend model but have heard that they are fun and forgiving speakers that don’t unlike the Union 6 which took a long time to bloom and open up. Take a look at the impulse measurements on Klipsch vs Zu.  Big difference in their time and phase accuracy.
