I assume you may be posting at avs as well?

I think amir is clearly inconsistent in how he weighs his recs and i think he was (way) overly harsh in his assessment that nht has been diminished, based on the performance of the most entry level speaker ..but.... These are just small entry level books , they , I'm sure, aren't audiophile...

Looks like a pretty strong rec to use a sub to me... If there is one absolute in the hobby, it's that there are no absolutely mandated practices, mostly because it's a freakin hobby.. And absolutely everybody that participates is participating in a solo hobby, his own ....

Gotta love perspective....

I'm not in the market... I just don't do obsessive buying....I'm good ,really..

I'll take my 530s on one set up and my Dennis Murphy mods (on the other)and call it a day

Just for full disclosure.. I own the 530s...like them very much.. More than you , i would think..

Sorry no interest .. I'll stick with what i have ...

Of course i did.. You gave the jbls a pass considering sale price while dumping on the nht's at retail.. Consistency dude .. You ain't got it.. Adios xear leader I'm finished with you for now...

I dont own nht.. So on to your next emotional charge... Nice try though...

bingo...

no Sh**.. i'm not suggesting he ought to be drawn and quartered for cripes sakes ( as the vast defense responses would suggest) .. i'm just saying .."how about a little less worship and a little more perspective when it comes to obvious inconsistency" in the reviews...

but can widely be aquired (amazon ) for $60 -70 a speaker..$300 isn't even a realistic price.. well maybe for a sucker...

dude has serious (in ) consistency issues .. i know nobody is perfect , but all you have to do is look at the history...

no .. no conspiracy theory here.. i just find your "leader" a bit more flawed than you do...

that's your opinion .. mine is different.. i'll leave it there for each to judge on it's own merits ...

Yes exactly.. So what's your point? Like i said above the reviewer certainly knew that the jbl 530s were heavily discounted at times and recommended them based on that price.. Disregarding the same business model at nht .. Looks like cherry picking to me....

That's certainly an opinion..He certainly knew that the jbl 530 was widely available at less than retail...He actually based his rec on the sale price..

The thing most here disregard en masse is : these speakers are *widely available*at deep discounts and shouldn't be judged solely at boutique pricing... They aren't $300/ 200 a pair speakers... They are $150 or less most of the time on Amazon..and if the reviewer doesn't know that what does that...

Nht must be on the same Sh**list as ascend...interesting that other poorly measuring speakers don't generate wide sweeping generalized negative comments about the company based on the most entry level product...
