Those NSMT 100's a great speakers! I've had the pleasure of hearing them at Terry London's house more than once and have always found the presentation world-class. They are a well-rounded speaker - they can energize the room (he has a large space) and be very delicate when the music calls for it. Working with a range of music types & volumes.
They "disappear" and also throw an impressive verticle soundstage - producing a music-aura that is non-fatiguing and very musical.
They are a good value, full range and not power hungery. A hard-to-find combination.
I'll also echo your good vibes on Mike Kay. He's a great guy.
