Best small/monitor/bookshelf speakers?

Is it me or is everyone ignoring the B&W 302DM??

For the JM Reynaud speakers try Randy@ossaudio. He is the U.S. importer and very helpful.

Funny, I looked at the Reynaud website and the US rep listed is a 20" drive from where I live.

Camadeco: I am not certain that I listened to the "DM". I listened to a model 302 that I found to be a little too rough sounding for my taste, but do not know if it was DM, Series 2 or what. I listened to a 601 model (again I do not know which series) on which the highend was too rolled off for my taste. Both sounded very musical and the 601 had ample detail, just not in the HF. In other words they both sounded very nice until I listened to the speakers that I recommend above. I think that B&W makes some fine moniters like the Nautilus series, but they are pricey and require electronics of equal quality. Is the DM series a new revised line?

There is a good review of several different models in the $500 and under range in last months Listner magazine. Results and comparisons are made with reviewers preference for best of pack. Check it out.
