Help this old rookie with speakers


Been reading a lot of the discussions and I am super impressed with the knowledge here.  

And a sage piece of wisdom that I got 40 years ago is "if you want to get your a$$ handed to you, try to be an expert in another man's field".

So...   I'm looking to put a new set of speakers in my living room.   I have an NAD 2400 amp. that I have owned for 30 years, and it has served me well powering my Boston Acoustics VR975 speakers

I've had an affinity for La Scala's for a long time, but I think they are a little big for this space.   So I was wondering if anyone had experience with the  Crites Speaker Type CS Style B.   They seem to be like  Cornwalls and a very good price.

Thanks!

Buy Klipsch or JBL if you can. The resale value is so high. You can buy a used pair of speakers, use them for 10 years and turn a tiny profit by re-selling them. The brand image is insanely high. Can you get better performance for a fraction of the price? 100%. But you'll lose money on the resale. 
 

I paid 4k for a pair of 2019 vintage LaScala IIs. I dare anyone here to find better performance for a fraction of that price.
