Looking for a speaker that doesn't exist

I have been searching for weeks now both in stores and online, and i'm getting more and more confused the more I look.

I am building a dedicated theater room, plan is for an acoustically transparent screen. The room is small, 13 x 11 at most and I currently have a cheap denon 7.1 htib setup, small 5.25 inch woofer bookshelfs all around and a dual woofer center. Sound is ok, I sure can get it loud enough, but it lacks that dynamic impact of real theater sound.

I have always been a sucker for the klipsch sound, the horns sound pleasing to me. Maybe its because I grew up with Klipsch sound from my dads Stereo.

Where is this going? I'm trying to find the mythical speaker that does not exist. Its basically a Klipsch sounding, very Dynamic speaker that gives "big theater sound" which is not just the same thing as playing loud.

However it cannot be a tower, My room is too small to cram towers behind the AT screen as my equipment rack will be under the screen, so If I try to sit 40inch high towers above my equipment rack, lets say on a shelf, the tweeters will be 6 feet high or more..... doesnt work.

Im looking for sealed or front ported identical LCR speakers. If price was no object I would not be asking this question I would already have bought 3 of these: http://www.klipsch.com/products/details/kl-650-thx.aspx

But I did not win the lottery today, so ideally the price per speaker would be 10 times less. Lets say 600 total for the front 3.

I have not been impressed with just standard 5 inch woofer bookshelfs (found at Best Buy and such), they again seem to lack that dynamics of Klipsch sound.

On wall speakers meant to surround plasma TVs look underwhelming to me, many have 4inch drivers and seem to sacrifice sound quality for slim looks.

Am I going crazy? Is there such a speaker that can fill this need anywhere near my budget ?

Please help

Thanks for the suggestions,

Its a shame the both the HSU and the Klipsch Bookshelves (in my price range like the RB-51, RB-10) are rear ported. As there would only be a few inches behind the speaker to the back wall.

How much of a hit would it be to basically plug the ports, or just give them say 1 to 2 inches of room behind them. The RB-81 looks great, but sadly out of my price range hah.

I have an Onkyo 705 to drive the speakers so Audyssey should correct the sound best it can with the blocked ports, but I guess it cannot correct for the loss of mid bass that would cause ?

How crazy is this, speaking of Bic Acoustech, could I take their HT-85 (center channel), rotate the horn tweeter 90 degrees, and sit three across the front vertically ? They look to be sealed enclosures. That would give dual 8inch drivers all across. Thats the same price as a pair of RB-51s there is no port to deal with, and the drivers are larger. Does that make any sense ?

I would love some vintage Klipsch up front, I have never heard Heresys myself, but people do rave about them.

That sounds like a great idea, I guess I didnt think about it as it doesnt get much coverage here, but I do sometimes check the Klipsch forums and many members talk about Heritage speaker setups there.

Any better places to look for Heresys than Audiogon and Ebay ?

Maybe there is a super secret used speaker selling club out on the internets I have never heard of hah.

This is a really stupid question but are the heritage series from Klipsch similar in sound to say the reference series, or lets say this, I assume (from other reviews and such) that heritage klipsch gear is more than capable of producing good sounding movie soundtracks ? Just cause they were built in the 80s or so doesnt mean that they cant keep up with the lossless audio codecs we have today right ?!?
