Not heard the Cambridge speakers so can not comment on them but some of the monitor audio speakers are meant to be a neutral speakers as it sound to me your looking for a detailed treble but not to bright and natural bass that doesn't Go to deep and to keep the Nad amp is this right ? Or are you looking at changing both in the future as I have never owned a Nad amp before or heard one is it much different from the marantz pm6005 that you had because I thought marantz had a flat response Evan though I thought it sounded warm but this must come down to the speakers or the dac used and power supply as I found out there is no house sound from a post that we did on here but not with marantz anyway . Like I say about useing sliver RCAs or speaker cables I found that they can add brightness to the treble if the setup is a little bright for a start but do understand that silver is a good conducter but I always ways use good quality cooper cables as I find it helps with bass control . So the only thing I could think of is find a speaker with good treble and a natural bass and add a sub and integrate some bass a little that way then your controlling how much bass your adding to the speakers but this also comes down to how good the sub is too and how you have set this up Dali make some good subs . I tell you what your a lucky man have Dali right on your door step they really do make some amazing speakers you should be proud of your country at making a good speakers I have had loads of speakers in the past I even owned audio golds in the past which cost double what my Dali opticons cost me and my opticons wipe the floor with the audio golds that I had years ago anyway let us know what your going to go for
I dont wan't a bright top like there is with dali zensors, theres where my boston a's are really good, like a sound you don't get tired listening to after many hours (feel the wharfedale diamond 220 is to soft to restrained, dali zensor 1 to loud and not very good playing loud within a 50 watt amps limited)
What i like,want in bass, i would rather have a tight dynamic bass you can hear, then a ultra deep bass that is neutral and depends on how the music you listen to is recorded. I can't have both since i don't have the space for a subwoofer and i can't adjust it to sound perfect with my speakers, so i rather have a dynamic,tight bass you can hear then a ultra deep bass.
50hz is fine, wouldn't like to have down to 40hz but a more flat frequency responce and lower max spl (like the bass is deep but the speaker is not able to play loud, have tried such speaker once, i wish besides a much more soft top that it could handle 50watt (edm) without reaching it's limited, bass wasn't ultra deep (under 60hz) but i could hear it and it was full bodied,warm sounding)
Bass to me is not just bass under 80hz but also above 80hz, if you want a tight kick from the drums like in a dum solo it's not enough to have alot of power under 80hz
