NHT 2.5i VS NHT Classic 4


Thinking of upgrading my 2.5i to Classic 4. Is there big difference between these two and is it worth upgrading?

Hey Background, thanks for your post. I've always wondered how these two compared. I had the 2.5is years ago, then sold them only to re-buy another used pair about 3 years ago for $250.00. I've never heard the 4s (i had the 3s too), but have always been curious. i've noticed they have gone down in price tremendously on the used market. i might just go for it!!
Thanks man!!!!
I've always loved the mahogany finish on that line. I thought they were stunning, though i never bought a single nht pair in that finish, that whole line was really fun to play with. I actually had more fun with the 2.5is than the 3.3s. the only reason why I sold the 3.3s was because I got an incredible deal on some genesis speakers. i've always heard that they all needed some balls to be appreciated. I recently sold my tubes and bought a class d amp. just for shits and giggles, im going to try out the 2.5is with that amp. I hope I don't blow them, or worse.
background: i'm going to try that today. i think i'm going to be the one that'll be blown away.
well, i have the d-sonic 1200s. im gonna do it after work, but to honest, i'm kinda scared!!!!
Background, you are the man! I don't mean to hi-jack the thread, but it is relative to the original post. I hooked up the 2.5is to the d-sonic. those little old suckers have never sounded better...ever!!!. they can take a lot!!! I had to turn up the volume way up to really hear them the way they were intended. I have a newly found respect for those old things.. if only i'd kept the 3.3s. its also amazing what high power class d amps can do. but now I want the 4s, since you've said they're much, much better.
in the meantime, rock on everybody! thanks to everyone, especially background.
