Easy to Drive Bookshelf Monitor?

I'm looking for a pair of bookshelf monitors that will be used in a two channel system. The amps powering them will be 20wpc Antique Sound Labs Wave 20's, so am looking for something with a relatively high sensitivy and fairly easy load to drive. I would also like a speaker that can play at relatively high SPL levels (90-95 db or so). Low frequencies will be handled by a powered sub, so don't need to worry about that. My budget is 2k max, but would like to spend less if possible. I would also like something that looks nice, preferably with a veneer exterior. Some of models I have read about that might work are:

Monitor Audio GR10
Proac Response One
Von Schweikert VR-1
Coincident Triumph Signature
B&W 705
Sonus Faber Concerto (require more power?)

Can anyone comment on any of these? Any other suggestions? I generally like a warm sounding and detailed presentation.

Thanks in advance.
