Bookshelf Speakers - Musical Fidelity A300 & Rock


Greetings All!

I'm hoping someone can help me out. I've got a Musical Fidelity A300 integrated and am looking for some bookshelf speakers for listening to mostly classic rock LP's via a Rega P5 turntable w/ the Rega Exact cartridge.

I've been gradually upgrading my equipment and originally had some Polk RTi-6's, but recently replaced them with the Polk LSi-7's. I like the 7's - the bass and midrange is much better than the RTi-6's, but the top end is just not "there" enough for me.

I know the tweeter is what has been getting such rave reviews on this LSi seires, but it's just too laid back for me and the type of music I listen to I guess. I can see it working great for classical or jazz - but there's just not enough presence in the top end for classic rock if that makes sense.

I've thought about some B&W, Triangles or Paradigms - but am just not sure what would work best with my amp and musical tastes. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Good recomendations.
The NHT SB3 would be a great budget bookshelf. It is a little bright and extends pretty darn low for a bookshelf. If you need extended highs and are on a budget or can afford to experiment with less expensive speakers the SB3's are wonderful.
