Mystang, I heard the NHT 3.3 a few years ago and the Mahlers last fall. Both speakers have very low bass. I recall the Mahler's bass being more controlled and tuneful than the NHT, but the venue was different and music was not the same. Your room should be large enough for either. The Mahlers have a switch too boost bass response if the standard setting were insufficient to yield the bass pressure you require. Mahlers like to be driven very squarely. When I heard the Mahlers, they were being driven by the new Rowland 312 amp. The combination was to die for! They were being featured in the Soundings Hi-Fi room at the Denver Audiofest last fall. The combo was so good that I had to go back 4 times for long spells. By the end of the show Mark Krekeler of Soundings must have thought I was part of the room furnishings.
