Recommendations on mid-fi speakers

Hi folks,

I'm just getting into decent audio, and want a pair of nice but not terribly expensive floorstanding speakers. Below is a list of some I've encountered, and I'd be grateful for any comments, advice, warnings.

A bit more about my audio situation:

-- the arrangement of the living room where these will be placed makes it almost impossible to create a convenional triangular sweetspot for listening. So I need speakers that will sound good from several different places in the room.

--I need speakers that work for more serious listening with musical friends, as well as for "family listening" (that is, hanging out with my wife, listening at low-to-moderate volume).

--I do have a Roksan Kandy amp and CD player in my other system that may eventually be used with these speakers. But until I get a decent integrated amp for the living room, I need speakers that aren't completely intolerant of being driven by a mass-market receiver.

-- We listen to classical and classic rock (most of it not heavy) in roughly equal proportions.

Here are the choices I've come up with. Thanks for any thoughts....
