The Talon Peregrine X will IMHO best all of the others on your list, however, I wouldn't quite call it a bookshelf speaker either. Don't forget about the Talon Khite, as you may be surprised at how it compares to the other speakers listed, it is Talon's true "bookshelf" (I have heard all of the speakers on your list except the JMR Trente).
What is your vote for best bookshelf speaker ?
