what's the difference between x-cs encore and x-ls encore? moreover, how would the sound of these speakers compare to the N3? I built a pair of N3 for myself and my father in law always gushes about how nice they sound. I want to build him a pair of speakers, but a pair of N3 and a center channel N3S would be more than what I'm willing to spend on a gift (esp since the prices of N3 have gone up).
My FiL only has room for bookshelf speakers so I was looking at the X-CS/X-LS Encores. Never heard these, so wondering how they compare to the N3
