Speakers good for close to wall placement


There are quite a few speakers I would like to purchase, but I need to be realistic. I will need to find some speakers that perform well when placed close to the rear wall. After that choice I can move on to selecting the proper integrated amp to drive them. Any suggestions on which speakers work well near the rear wall?

Troels Gravesen designed a speaker for near-wall placement called the Bookshelf-3WC.

Its sensitivity is rated at 90 dB/2.8V/1 meter.

Check it out. 
For the sake of information, here's another near-wall speaker design by Troels Gravesen: 8008-CORNER

System sensitivity: 92 dB/2.8V, 1 meter

Troels used an 8 watt Joplin 2A3 amp with these speakers which he preferred over a First Watt J2 amp.
