Best small/monitor/bookshelf speakers?


I am wanting to update the speakers in my son's bedroom system and the ones at my office (older inexpensive Kef's). Have considered the newer Kef Q15.2, but haven't had the time or distribution in my area to check out all the possibilities..both new and used. What are you favorite speakers in this size range? Thanks for the help!

Thanks two you both for the responses. My post my be a little missleading. These are both secondary systems to may main one...and are not the highest-end by any means.. so perhaps the work Monitor should have been left out of the headline...anyway, my son's system is using a Denon CD player with an older Nak. Stasis receiver and older Monster M1000 interconnects..and some mid-level Monster speaker cable from the same vintage. The office is using a Classe intergrated and Straightwire Rapsody II for all wires... and both systems have rather inexpensive Kef's ...and I should look...I think they may be 102 of something....but had the chance to hear the little Q15.2 and thought they, or something in that range, would be a step up for both systems. Both of us listen mainly to Jazz and some Pop...and the office system has an older Sony ES tuner that I use to feed that system public radio most of the day..
Thanks for all the excellent input. We are starting to read information and reviews of nearly all of the above models.. and will try to listen to all. Your advise and experience is appreciated! Jim
