I tried lot of speakers & then finally bought NS-8900, 5 speaker set...I love the quality they offer, bought it with a HTR-6030 yamaha for 30K. Honestly, jamo sounded better, but just the 2 floor standing speakers of Jamo costed some 27K...and honestly, u can make out the diff only when u listen to music, with a movie there was hardly any diff between the Jamo & yamaha....every man to himself but all I can say is that Yamaha NS-8900 is a fantastic buy & excellent value for money.

30K. Then I have to say they are priced well. Now what is left to be seen is, how they sound compared to what they cost. Which city are you from?

Hi,

I bought it from Croma Juhu....and trust me it is very good quality sound, you can spend 2-3 times the amount & will get maybe 10-15% improvement if at all...the sound is very crisp....I just need to buy a subwoofer. Anybody know as to where can I get one assembled in Mumbai...10-150W continous avg...20-25Hz min with a crossover of about 35-40Hz, 10-12 inch front firing.

Any idea how sonodyne is?
