Hi all:

How do they each sound with Nuforce and will be a better match? I mostly listen to Ben Harper, Chicago blues, reggae, jazz and Mozart classics.
Or would you suggest something different? Is the NuForce S-2 speaker being delayed?

Thank you all =)

I got very timely response from Corey of Audioadvisor on speakers alone =)

"The PSB have better clarity and detail.  The Audio Engine P4 has a little stronger bass response, with a little warmer sound. Overall,  I consider the PSB speakers to be more accurate, but they are both fun to listen to."

Appreciated for other opinions.

I have heard audio engine in show setting - I really loved them - very well balanced - you do not need a sub ...

Nuforce S-1; killer speaker, but not for the bass addicts unless you're using 'em with a sub.

[chaosteo]

Yeah. I considred S-1 and the price is a steal. But it doesn't work with Icon Amp if I am not mistaken since I wanna use Amp to power other speakers down the road if possible.
