Audio Note J, K and E are all happy with 7 watts. HE versions happy with 3 watts especially in your room size. (some people like the sound of the K and J more than the E)
Any speaker using a single driver will also likely be easy to drive - Omega loudspeakers, Teresonic - they have closed and you may be able to get a steal of a deal. Voxative.
Volti Rival is quite good and can go fairly near walls
Certain Tannoy models should be fine as well
Zu Audio speaker
Trenner and Freidl - albeit pricey
Pure Audio Project is an open baffle - sounded superb with 2a3 amps under 10 watts. Might be a bit big physically but they don't need tons of space from the back walls.
Rethm speakers from India are relatively affordable - single driver with power subs - need more space but should work.
Some of these are not standmounts but a stand mount still takes up the same if not more footprint space. IE; a floorstander is often a standmount that includes the stand.
I think there are a ton of choices now for speakers that can be run from 7-8 watt SET amps in a modestly sized room - If you don't listen really loud you can probably get away with speakers in the 89dB range - something like the Legacy Audio Studio HD or Reference 3a MM De Capo.
And then of course there are the myriad of horn speakers out there.
