Castle Richmond3i, Polk RTi4 or Monitor Audio S1?

[stealth]

Anybody from here has an idea about Castle Richmond3i, Polk RTi4 or Monitor Audio S1? Which sounds better among the three and will best match for a NAD amp?

Thanks....

I can only speak for the Polks, I have a set of Rti4's and they are what initially converted me into a fan of the RTi line of speakers from Polk. Stereophile had this to say in the conclusion section:

"In this price range, of course, there are always tradeoffs; shoppers should follow their own listening biases in selecting an affordable speaker. But the Polk RTi4 holds its own against all competition, and should be given careful consideration by anyone looking for speakers costing less than $500/pair."

The MA S1's are a great speaker IMO. A buddy of mine has the Polks. While not bad, I find the MA S1's a much better speaker.

I have the RTi 4's as well for surrounds. They work great for me!
