advice re stand mounted speakers


i am considering a a stand mounted speaker just for kicks.

i am looking for a soft treble response, decent bass, and no forward mids, hopefully decent depth.

i was thinking of the nht 3. deos this speaker satisfy my requirement ? are ther others under $1000 ?

remember a bit euphonic and kind to the ear--no zingy dome tweeters

gentlemen: i just received a recommendation for a speaker called the era, $600, new. anyone heard this one, and what about any of the harbeth or castle acoustic speakers ?
MrT,

I haven't heard the Era, but it is getting good press recently. I've heard Castle in the past and I remember them sounding as you described. I also think they lood very nice!

Enjoy,

Joseph Audio RM7si are some of the best I've heard. No zingy dome tweeters here.
The GMA Europa; no zing. You could also sweeten the soundof whatever you choose with tubes :)
i happen to like devore speakers. i beleive there is a monitor called the gibbon 3. has anyone heard that one ?
