For reference, I have had dozens of pairs of speakers over the years, ranging from $200 to $12,000. They were all "good", but individuals hear differently and have different musical priorities.
I currently am enjoying 4 pairs: Monitors from Slverline and Joseph Audio (RM7Si SigII - one of my top 3 all time speakers for their size), a pair of Odyssey Lorelei (upgraded "Kismet" crossovers) which are a superbly musical, nearly full range (<30Hz) speaker, and a "system" of Gallo Strada 2 with 2 TR-3D subs which are unbelievably fast and accurate and go down to the low 20s.
Either of the latter 2 would work really, really well. The Triton 5 or 7, 206 or 208 Revel, JM Reynaud, and many of the other suggestions offered would also be good choices.
BTW - any of my speakers, if interested, would be for sale. (I've got MTSE and not sure how long I will last) (MTSE - "Must Try Something Else"). Good listening!
Follow Ups:
Great Thread.. thanks for all the recommendations. I will probably soon be looking for similar speakers for mostly progressive rock in a small treated room.
Top of my current list to check for floorstanders is the new Golden Ear Triton 2+, and for monitors audition would be Amphion Argon 3S

I think the nearfield listening distance requirement is a very important consideration.
