What are the best speakers for Mac MA252?

Under $2,500 including sub woofer (mono output).

Has anyone tried? My room is small (10'x10') so perhaps no need for sub? Focal 926/936 seems more expensive ($3,300 ~ $4K) and I'd like to stay within $2K for a pair of speakers and reserve $500 for sub in case I need.

It looks like a great entry-level speakers. It looks like designed with 8" woofer so wondering do I really need an additional subwoofer?

Based on various inputs, I've decided to go with bookshelfs rather than floor standing (my room is very small) with sub woofer. I will be starting auditions in several stereo stores. Thanks.
