I think you could get better sounding speakers, not knocking NHT but many, many very good speakers out there...could improve your system.
PERSONAL GEAR LIST; Your opinion on next best upgrade?
I currently have the following gear list and thought I’d come to the experts at Audiogon forums (shameless flattering admitted) to see your thoughts on which should be my next upgrade....
I’ve read here for a few years but never signed up myself.
I was thinking speakers should be next but thought maybe someone would see something here I didn’t that is worth considering first.

Bad, I would like to share another tidbit of info FWIW. I went searching for speakers within 90 miles of my home. I wanted to LISTEN and compare myself. I was advised by a couple of good dealers to bring my own music, to include some music I know very well. While I listen to jazz and acoustical music I had found a couple speakers sounded better with that kind of music, others better with Rock and so on. So I learned it’s not that there are really good speakers or terrible ones, it is moreso what you like for the kind of music you enjoy. I settled on Magnepan for one system and Vandersteen for my higher end system. I made sure to match the speakers to the capability of the amp, running tubes with the Vandy and SS with the Maggies. |
