I have a pair of the JB3's in my office and couldn't be happier with them. They have a remarkable, musical presence and their single-driver design doesn't seem to have any real downside in a near field situation. I drive them most of the time with a 10-watt Jolida FX10 EL84 amp and it's a very sweet combination.
In the summer, when the heat of the tubes of the FX10 is a little too much I use a NuForce Icon amp. It's not quite as engaging but still very easy to listen to.
I definitely recommend you listen to the JB3's if you get a chance.
