Problem ko with Airmotiv is kelangan pa pre-amp. I'm looking for something that you can just turn on, connect and play without the need of other devices..

I believe it can be used from any line level source without a preamp.

You might want to consider kef x300a. I forgot the distro, but it was displayed during the recent hifi show.

not really a bookshelf, but you might also want to consider 2pcs of HK Onyx Studio 3 speakers in your list.  :)
SQ has very much improved since the first version.

Meron sa LIS dati idol, Dynaudio Xeo. Narinig ko na din to, it retains the sound signature of the Excite in a smaller scale. Siguro mostly designed siya for near-field listening.
