Mc X iT Unregistered guest | hi, i am looking to update my speakers in my bedroom, which measures about 4m x 6m. I currently am using a LXI 150w/c power amp w/ Nad pre-amp. I listen to strictly hip hop, and from time to time enjoy LOUD music. I dont no whether i should look for floor speakers or book shelfs, and i do not want to have to buy a subwoofer. Any suggestions? thanks. |

I use this for my front speakers with the Yamaha av receiver for stereo hi-fi music listening. It has a power of real bass impact. No need to buy a sub. It produces loud, clear, and accurate sounds when I listen the jazz, blue, rock etc. Athena floorstanders have more power but I have no space for them in my small bedroom. So I bought the AS-B2 bookshelf speakers and enjoy it very much. charlesw |
