NHT M-OO, if you can find them, are an excellent powered computer speaker. They were designed to perform as console monitors in recording studios so they are meant for near field listening and intense scrutiny. Nothing I've heard comes close.
Monitors for Extreme Near-field listening
I can't seem to get a good sound out of the speakers that I use on my computer desk system. I wonder if LS3/5A monitors will help, as I have heard they are good for very-near-field listening.
My setup now includes:
Jungson DA-I200A power amp
Parasound P3 preamp
Consonance 120 Tuner.
My current speakers are Acoustic Energy bookshelf speakers, but they sound rather 'thin'. I have other systems with similar/lesser speakers/components that don't have this problem - for example, I am now listening to a Carver amp, Parasound Tuner, and Baby Advents, and they sound just fine.
So would LS 3/5A's or more modern equivalents such as Spendors or Harbeths help?
