I've been hemming and hawing back and forth for weeks now on replacing my NHT SuperZeroes in my living room system (they are partnered with a sub, of course). For 2-channel movie listening and casual, can't-sit-down listening, the speakers are trapped in an armoire, just a couple of feet apart, with the electronics between them. For serious listening sessions, I get out stands and set them up right.
My big concern is that the rear-ported design of the M2i (which otherwise sounds like a perfect match for my sonic desires) makes them unsuited for the armoire and the mini-cavernous space ("damped" only by the electronics and as many cds as will fit behind the speakers) in which the speakers will often sit. Maybe I need to consider a sealed or front-ported design...(?)
What is the wisdom of the board?
