Floorstanding Speakers for new 200W Integrated

I own a new McIntosh 200W per channel solid-state integrated and I've been shopping around for a pair of floorstanding speakers to use in my 12ft x 14ft room.

I've narrowed down my list to the four models listed below. Which would you recommend & why?

- ProAc Response D30R
- Sonus Faber Venere S
- Ryan R630
- Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Concert Grand SE

I'm in my mid-50s and I listen to all types of music, except Country/Western. Mostly: Jazz, Classical, R&B and Rock. I listen at very comfortable levels but when I'm home alone, I do like to crank it up!

I'm looking for great overall detail (including vocals), wide soundstage, deep/well-controlled bass & must be non-fatiguing since I do like to listen for hours. I play vinyl LPs, CDs and also stream FLAC music files.

The speakers must also work well with about 1ft-2ft of space behind them (depending on depth of speakers).

The four speaker models listed above are all within my budget.
