If space is a premium I would keep your eyes open for an older pair of B&W matrix 805's, they go for 500 to 800 depending on finish and the hutzpah of the seller and they sound utterly lovely.
They are a true moniter, you can put them in a bookshelf or right up against a wall. Probably 1.5 ft cubed but sound like they are a full size speaker. Audiogon is a good source for second hand gear frm the US, they changed their website so it is actually harder to get around but I will head down to Seattle to look at stuff at times.

You know a lot more about speaker technology than me. Truth be told I was lucky enough to have a friend simply give the NS-10s to me, saying his Dad hated them, and he hated them, and I liked them from audio school. I think we need to have a beer, and let this thread not turn into the "Gear Thread" because I would nerd-out to epic proportions.
