Apartment Dweller's Paradise - The Ideal 2 ch. system?

I would get the small harbeths and a Croft amp or used red wine as suggested. On a smaller budget perhaps powered speakers like Adam pros with a good dac streamer like bluesound or oppo. 

Ideal system for a SMALL space is a headphone system ,
With a little careful buying you can get as good, or better, than the average
10K$ system for a thousand bucks .
And 95% of the population can adjust to "phones. After 3-4 weeks they seem normal .

I put my current system of Quad VA-One driving Dynaudio Excite X14’s up against anything out there in a small room...
Even at lower listening levels it still has body and detail...I’ve experimented with plugging the port and putting them against the wall and the room still disappears..Amazing pint size speakers and superbly musical amp with fantastic(although underpowered)headphone circuit...
