Speaker recommendations for NAD

I'd like recommendations for speakers that are well-suited to and compliment the NAD C352 integrated amp and NAD C542 CD player.

Due to severe space restrictions (footprint), they'll need to be bookshelf-size. The'll sit on a long wooden cabinet with the components stacked in the middle. The room has exposed hardwood flooring under a wool area rug.

Music listened to is classical (both orchestral and chamber ensembles), jazz (mostly instrumental, some vocal), prog rock.

Thanks much.

Last year, I helped a friend put together a budget system around the NAD C372 integrated amp and an Onix CD player. (We used the more powerful C372 as opposed to the C352 because my friend wanted the ability to drive a second pair of outdoor speakers with the amp.) We paired the NAD integrated amp with PSB Image B25 monitors and the sound is excellent - warm and non-fatiguing just as Xlr_rca described above with respect to the Wharfedale monitors. We used the Speltz Anti-Cable speaker cables and interconnects.

The PSB speakers offer very good sound at a bargain price. If I recall correctly, I believe the Image B25 monitors retail for just under $500/pr.
