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?

Larsen gets no love on this site.  They are specifically designed to be jammed up next to the wall behind them.  But not in the corners.  Audio Note for close wall and corner placement.  Search those two brand names on this forum and you'll find more threads discussing same or similar topic to this one.
Anyone remember the NHT 3.3's?  They were so deep that you could jam the back of them right up against the wall and yet the drivers would still be a good distance out from the wall.
