bookshelf speaker choice


I am planning to upgrade my speakers, I thought I would ask for a few opinions.
Currently I use a B&K amp and I am considering either new NHT classic 3's, used paradigm studio 40's, or used Von Schweikert VR-1's. All 3 should be the similar in price range, which would you choose. I want something off the floor since it's a small house and couple of small children which creates a need for speakers that are not floor standing. These are meant for stereo listening and mains for my HT. Thanks for the input.

I used to run B&W dm 602 S3's with a matching sub and was very pleased with them.

Ironically, I got rid of them because of little kids. I had them mounted on stands, but they did not attach to the stands themselves and so presented a real risk. If you're looking for monitors for kid safety, take that into consideration.

If you do consider the 602's, you might also want to think about 602.5's. They are the floor stander version of the 602's.
