I will just say that what I would choose, is what I have heard. Others might say, they are old dinosaurs and there is so much better out there. The best "jazz" speakers I've ever heard are JBL L150a's. To me the L150a, you feel like you are sitting in a jazz club and the only thing missing is the smell of cigarette smoke in the air. I thought I knew the music of Miles Davis, Charles Mingus and Dave Brubeck or Holly Cole's Temptation . I felt like I was in the room they were performing. This was with a AR VSI-55 for amplification. Whatever you end up with, I have felt that the big box speakers do things the wee little ones just can't get there. Happy hunting. Can't wait to see what others suggest.
