Hello inmates,
I am looking to give my NHT Classic 3's a break and try something new. Right now I have narrowed it down to the KEF ls50's and NSMT Model 20M. Both are concentric designs, which I am curious about, but retain the sealed cabinet which I prefer. There is a lot out there about the LS50's but not much on the NSMT's.
I have also looked at the Harbeth P3ESR, but not sure if they will be a good fit for my listening taste.
My room is 11x 14.5 x 7.5, and my taste is mostly rock and blues, with a little jazz thrown in. The amp is a Jolida JD1501BRC tube hybrid which puts out 100w @8ohm and 180w @4ohm.
Anyone here with any experience on the speakers mentioned?
TIA.
