Haven't tried the others you mention, use harmonics pro 9 shotgun. Very good. The NBS is very good for the money, I suspect better than the others you mentioned. Very clean and extended at both extremes but lacks the fullness of say the magnan signature, my personal favourite, but 3 x more expensive. If your system is sounding too warm or a little on the bloated side the monitor iv will tighten up the whole system. They are very detailed but not edgy. I have found that cable changes are dependant on system resolution. I currently use B&W Nautilis 802 with Krell FPB300 and AR LS16.
Good system choice. Sounds like the NBS would go well with your system. Yhe one to go for but haven't heard it is the monitor iii version. Ckeck their web site for reviews. I bought mine thru a dealer on the net for about 45% off, and arrived perfectly. I have heard very good things about JPS. Good CD choice as well. Unfortuntely in New Zealand it retails for $10,000 no joke. Plinius is the only cheap brand obviously here, around $2500 US from memory.
