Have you exhausted your stem and spacer options? A 73 (-17) degree stem with no spacers is a common sight on pro bikes. Even with my long legs, I use a 73 degree stem and only 5mm of spacer.
If you have a 15-20mm top section on an integrated headset, you can usually replace it with something around 8mm.
