best "bookshelf" speakers for nearfield listening

I know this has been asked before, but am looking for another "high end" bookshelf speaker for nearfield listening. nearfield is 6 to 8 feet, volumes are modest, jazz and contemporary/classic rock. Have used totem mani 2 sigs and liked them, but am wondering about joseph, reference 3a, harbeth, coincident, silverline, devore amongst others. (none of which i have heard and with no dealers close by...) macintosh solid state, 200w/channel. thanks a lot. mike

I would put the JM Labs mini-Utopia on your short list. It sounds excellent, especially for the types of music you mention. The Coincident Triumph I believe is Coincident's only monitor, and I used to own it. It has a good, solid fullness to the sound and is great for the price, but not the last word.
