Good speaker match for Nuprime IDA-8?
My dad runs KEF LS50s with his IDA-8.   Room is probably 12 by 18--so small to medium size.  I can confirm the sound is excellent.-Margot

Speakers for a very small room
Omega Super 3i would work in a small room.   Silverline Minuet Supreme Plus also a possibility--easy to drive.
