Hi Folks , I am thinking about changing my martin audio w3ps and amp for a pair of eaw nt56 or 59,
its going to cost quite a bit and I cant demo them first, so I am wondering if anyone has used them
and what they are like ? From the reviews on the net they are the best thing since sliced bread
but I guess there can be vested interests there too. Also if anyone has any suggestions of cheaper alternatives
that would be great too, thanks in advance, Robin.

what dint you like about the w3ps?

Hi Rob, I do like them , but they are very heavy, and the nt 59s are lighter , even with the onboard amp,
also I am going to be using a macbook pro and apple mainstage as my main mixer now , so powered speakers
would eliminate the need for a rack , and seriously cut down on weight and space, Robin

Hi
If you decide to go for the nt's have you thought about getting them shipped over from America?
They are £3.5k each on dv whereas I reckon you could get them for not much over that for a pair
shipped from the states.
I may well end up going for a pair of the nt26's myself at some stage.I've not heard them but have a pair of jfx290's and I absolutely love the clarity of them.
