KK-well not really but the styles overlap and some artists are seen in both categories. Ambient as I would descrice is mainly electronic based instrumental stuff- more sonics than songwritng. New Age on the other hand can be like this but is more ethnic (various) based and includes more traditional instruments,chants and veers into modern classical at times also. I guess cynically ambient is seen as more contemporary and dance related and that New Age is more hippy trippy meditation music.Er I mean that with no offense I'm sure we'll get a "which speakers make whales sound more life-like" thread soon.:-)
