Spendor D9.2 vs. Harbeth super hl5 plus xd + REL Stentor III vs. Spendor Classic 100?

I am thinking of purchasing one of the following:

1). Harbeth SHL5 plus XD + REL Stentor III Reference Subwoofer due to lack of bass and low octave in bass.

2). Spendor Classic 100 - The bass is a bit noticeable and aggressive. 

3). Spendor D9.2.

My living room where the system will stand is: 5.5 meters x 8 meters, a standard ceiling of 2.7 meters and the entire construction is a 20 cm block. From the living room comes a 25 meters kitchen. The speakers I choose can stand up to about 1 meter from the front wall.

Anyone who has heard of at least 2 of them or a previous generation and can have an opinion on a comparison between them?

Thank you very much for your help.

I am also considering new speakers and some of those mentioned above by the OP.  I heard D7's at a friend's home (driven by a Krell integrated amp and playing Quboz) and felt the speakers had unnaturally forward highs, though  the midrange was nice and bass was also strong and taut.  This coming from an owner of Epos M22 old flagships with the famous metal dome tweeter.  

I would think a Spendor classic or Harbeth would have a more balanced sound.
