BLUE CIRCLE NSCS+SPENDOR S5E OR S8E?

Thanks for the info Philnyc.
I wish i could hear the NSCS before buying it......
BTW- have you compared the 9200 with the NSCS?

just chiming in to say choose the s8e's over the s5e's if you can...i traded up after 4 mo with the s5e's...the 8's cast a much greater soundstage and play with a lot more ease!

i've used musical fidelity's a5 with great results...now i am on to rogue 150 mono blocks, but that is away from the direction you are heading. just be encouraged that the spendors do wonderful with solid state!

Lior, I've never compared the NSCS with the 9200 directly...sorry I can't give you additional insight for this comparison...

Hi Chadlesko, do you find the 8se to be power hungry?
do you think 110 watt ( like the BC NSCS) is enough for medium size room ,for all kinds of music?.

Hi Lior

yes, i would say so...in addition to the MF A5 (250 watts), i've run them with a 70 watt Arcam AVR200 to great effect...no sense of strain, however, prior to the rogue 150's i first tried a Conrad Johnson MV60SE tube amp and there was a lack of power (60 tube watts). You should have ample power with 110 watts no matter what material is played...i really do miss the iron fist of the MF A5 Solid State power! But the Rogues are a great mix of both! By the way, you might consider trying silver wire with the Spendors unless your other components are harsh. I fell in love with the sound of Nordost coming through them...and a later visit to a dealer (to hear the rogues) the owner specifically asked me if i was running silver wire...the really open up with it.
