Hi guys, i'm looking to buy one of this speakers, (Neumman KH 120 vs A7x vs CMS 50) and i got some a bit specific questions about them.

Q: Usage?

A: Music listening, (no production) mostly rock and instrumental music/vocals/blues/new age, i prefer detailed sound and huge soundstage, with decent lows.

Q: Room size?

A: 5x5m

Q: DAC/Soundcard?

A: Xonar STX, will be used as PC speakers.

would also like to know, which from this speakers use most quality parts, and the exact models of amps, for example i heard mosfet based amps are the best, and better then PWM/regular amps.

Okey, i was just gonna pick up my HK HD980 CD-player that had been on service. BUT the store where i picked up the CD-player had a good deal on a vinyl player. Soooo I'm now a owner of a red Pro-Ject RPM 1.3 Genie with a beautiful sounding and looking Ortofon 2M-pickup. I had borrowed a old and not so good vinyl player from a friend but my vinyl collection just hit 250 vinyls, i think it was time.

Guess this is gonna be my christmas present to myself.

Love the red colour and the design, not a standard vinyl player.

Ortofon 2M-pickup.

My whole 2.0 setup, not really high-end but it sounds pretty good.

Now I'm off to play some LP's.

You want them pointing straight at you, otherwise you're only hearing reflections which ruins stereo image.

The problem i have is the layout of my room. My bed stands where the image is taken so i almost never sit right in front of the speakers. My PC is just to the left of the bed and there is where i listen most times but it sucks.

I need to move to a better place.
