Some tower speaker options/prices

Hi, so I'm in the market for some floorstanding tower speakers, and here's what I've come across:

Wharfdale EM 97 for $250
KEF C80 for $240
Technics SB-A27 for $120
Realistic Optimus T110 for $110
Boston Acoustics TA930 for $220

I'll be driving these with a Pioneer SX-737 so if anything jumps out and screams "NOT A MATCH" that'd be helpful info, but do any of these strike y'all as a particularly good deal for a particularly good set of towers?

I'm pretty sure the KEFs are a deal. Some Radio Shack speakers are pretty good, but not those. The Technics are craptastic, and I've owned Technics speakers I liked very much, so I'm not bashing. No experience with the other two, though the Wharfs look nice.

In Boston you should be able to come up with some ADS at a reasonable price. Don't discount the 710s just because they aren't a tower. In my experience they will crush any of the above except maybe the KEFs.
