I'd recommend the one you heard and liked the best. Forget what everyone else has to say. It's your money and speakers.

NAD???

lOL..

good luck with that. Definitely stick with small bookshelf speakers whatever you do. I wouldnt chance risking 'real' speakers. Stick with the little ones.

Paul, your comments are getting tiring.

It's obvious to anybody who regularly reads this forum that Anonymous who originially posted and yourself are looking for very different things out of their system.

While I believe the above system will not offer the same theatre impact as yours you remain blind to the obvious fact that the little "boutique" systems such as tubes paired with tight bookshelfs offer a completely different experience in musical playback.

Yeah Paul. Please simply refrain from posting on music-related threads. What's the point? How's is a new poster supposed to know about your little NAD/Arcam/bookself jokes?

Guys, Paul missed out on two whole weeks of trolling this forum while he was on vacation, it's obvious he's just making up for the lost time...all that lost love and attention he normally gets from us, poor thing.

So, I propose that we just stop and give Paul a big GROUP HUG, how about it huh? something along the lines of:

"PAUL DON'T WORRY WE STILL LOVE AND ADORE YOU, WELCOME BACK!!!"

Where did that come from? The Ascends weren't even on your list?

Well I have been inside a recording studio and the Alesis monitor ones, had a clean good sound on them, that went plenty, loud enough for me,

Would I buy some, you ask me the answer would indeed be yes, good buy in those tight spaces where performance comes to the listener.

the alesis has a good clean sound that surprisingly can fill a decent sized room.
