Need Speaker Advice


I've narrowed my choices to the following speakers. Will have to purchase online since every local outlet I've talked to are thieves and have over priced products.

Phase Technology V-4 or V-52 Bookshelf
NHT Super Zero 2 bookshelf with Super One 8" sub
Jamo C 603 or C 803 bookshelf
Fluance SV series bookshelf

Quick background. I have a Qinpu A 3 hybrid tube/solid state integrated amp. 8.5 watts per channel. This is an 8 ohm amp. It easily drives my Mirage OM 10 towers but I had to box them up because I have a rogue pet that has started to jump on them. Can't use them for a year or two until I buy a suitable house and can build a dedicated, pet free listening room. In the meantime I need something that I can use from the list above for a second system that will ultimately go into my living room. Size of these speakers will deter pet from using as toys.

I've done some research and received some recommendations that led to the list above. I have not heard any to date except for the V-4. I prefer a neutral sounding speaker that is not too heavy on bass. A slightly warm speaker is fine as long as it is essentially neutral sounding. I want to avoid the listening fatigue that is associated with Klipsch style speakers. In other words those that have a harsh high end.

Based upon what I have read all of the above should satisfy the criteria I've mentioned. And all the bookshelf speakers and some of the towers that are not complete. Any recommendations especially from users of any speakers in this list will be appreciated. The amp is persnickity and won't work properly with a bass heavy speaker or design.

Have you researched Monitor Audio products. The older Monitor Gold sound like what you seem to want.
BTW a speaker which is lighter on bass tends to be heard often times as a midrange and treble boost.
I was thinking of Focal speakers but they may be too revealing. There are a number of different models of Focal (and monitor for that matter), the one you might want, will depend on how much you have budgeted for.
Of what you list ,the NHT will sound best, but they need power, 8 watts ?-I doubt it.Phase Tec is OK, I wouldn't want the other two if they were free, to be blunt about it.

I have a pr of Focal Titus 202 I use with a 8watt Eastern Electric tube integrated, VERY nice sound , just what you describe. I've seen them on here for around $300.
Unfortunately I have a limited budget right now. Just bought a house and have a ton of things to do with it.

I looked into the Monitor Audio Bronze series based upon a review I read in Sound and Vision Magazine recently. The BX 2 appears to be a little too bright for my taste but the BX 1 according to the article might be in the ballpark.

Do you have a link to the Focal speaker company? I can't seem to find it.
Schubert. I was a bit worried about the sensitivity of the NHT speaker. Someone at Audio Advisor claims it won't present an issue with the A3 but I am a bit leery of it.

The Phase Tech sounds quite good and the spec's will match up fine with the amp.

Can't find the speaker you are using other than a review from 2002. Guessing it has been discontinued. Can't even find a website for Focal speakers. If you can provide one I will certainly look into them.

Why don't you like the Jamo C series? I've read a lot of great reviews of this particular line of speakers. They seem to be quite neutral sounding from what I gather.
