Looking at a build that will work on a bookshelf/media wall. I have considered two ways traditional speakers like the Ergo IX or Excite Relevation Monitor Mk2 but wondered if there was a full range that would rival these?
So as said, needs to work close to wall/in bookshelf firing straight out (no toe in), max volume is around 12 lites ( replacing Yamaha HS7 so similar size) and ideally does not need a subwoofer. Will be driven by Naim Atom / Nad M10 / Lyngdorf TDAI1120 / Eversolo DPM-A6 + F2 or similar, used for both music and TV in UK lounge (20ft x 12ft with 8.5ft ceiling firing across the short axis). And budget similar to the 2 Ways listed which is about £750-1000 for drivers and crossovers.
I know the requirements are a compromise but any suggestions on a full range (with shaping filter?) speaker that can do this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Mark Audio A7/11ms fits 9 litres, asdo many MA 4”.

They all have the same format. Can be rotated if necessary. These are CGR derivatives, there are a bunch of those too.

Lots of other possibilities.
Pushed up against the wall you might get too ,much bass boost, the slot can convienientlybe stuffed with open-cel foam to push (further) aperiodic with less bass gain.

Ugg10,
Not single driver wideband (aka full range) speakers, but with your budget, worth having a look:
https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/audio_first_fidelia/
https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/ascilab_c6b/
The Audiofirst Fidelia is slightly smaller than the Yamaha you have and comes as a full kit that you have to assemble - my understanding is that they are based in the UK. The website has the kit listed at GBP 950 for a pair of speakers.
The Ascilab C6B is a fully finished product, and a couple of inches taller than the Yamaha HS7.

Thanks both, will look into those.
The Fidelia looks similar to Jeff Bagby’s Revolution which also gets good reviews and we’re on my list. They also seem to be similar to the Revel M106 as well which measure well too and use the NBAC SB drivers which are almost identical to the CAC used in those linked..
