Major innovative break through: The new NSMT Loudspeakers reference speaker

Guys, here is the link to NSMT website.  You can read about cabinets, drivers and anything you want to know about NSMT speaker parts and construction just follow this link.

That sounds like a huge, mega, gigantic breakthrough......how do they sound.

I looked at the website before posting. All that diatribe about green eco-building tells one nothing about the real construction of the cabinets. And there is nothing-at least that I found-as to where and from whom the drivers are sourced. I don't really care. My post was to point out Stereotimes' penchant for hype, hyperbole, and exaggeration.

Every magazine and webzine is guilty of it to a degree. I do think this particular webzine stands at the extreme end of the spectrum. Obviously Terry London puts sound above craftsmanship-otherwise he would not tout the Tekton product. If components are routinely being replaced to the point of "disposable product", it is not an issue. If longevity matters, quality craftsmanship does matter.

Mr. London CHOSE to come onto this forum and promote his forum and his review. I find that practice a bit off-putting. Particularly combined with an attempt to grab attention by with a title "Major innovative break through". Reminds me of Kenjit but Kenjit thank goodness does not claim to be a professional reviewer (or maybe he does). C'mon. There is neither a major innovation or a major break-through to be seen here.

Hey fsonicsmith 1,

Excellent points/concerns regarding the review of your Zen Acoustic speakers by Fitzpatrick. So let's get to the "case at hand". For you to apply your overall perspective to my review I believe is disingenuous for the following reasons:

1) As stated all NSMT speaker cabinets are hand crafted in-house by Erol and he uses different hard woods depending on the model. 

2) Never made a statement, or implied, that the drivers are built in-house. Erol uses very high grade drivers from different sources. He will test scores of different transducers until he gets the measurement and sound he is looking for. If you contact Erol he will discuss with you were he scores his drivers and answer your other questions too.

3) I do not believe I use either hyperbole (exaggeration) or misinformation in this review or any of my reviews. My readers know what my personal taste is and what I'm looking for in the performance of a speaker. If you have a similar tastes you will probably immensely enjoy the speaker, if not you won't. 

4) You are correct in pointing out my omission of not sharing what other amplifiers I used to evaluate the NSMT System Two speakers. If you look at the end of the review you will see a list of all my in-house equipment. I have other terrific solid state amplifiers along with a great SET 300B amplifier and the System Two sounded superlative with all of them. The monitor's sensitivity is 94 dB so even low watt SET amps drive it with ease. Add on the band pass active subwoofers you got a very easy load for any amplification that you want to use.

Thanks, Teajay (Terry London)

Hey Sounds_Real_Audio,

I'm a little mystified about your question, " how do they sound". I believe I get into great details trying to explain what this speaker sonicly produces specifically in my review.

Did you read the review?

Thanks, Teajay
