Still contemplating then Neat Iotas but we have had a change around in the living room for Christmas and it looks like a set of stand mount speakers might fit. Second hand PMC DB1+ are on eBay for £550 and was wondering if these were an alternative for the Neats?

I'd say they'd work really well...

 

I ran Neat Motive 2's on the end of mine for a while and also heard the Neat Iotas, PMC GB1i's, KEF R100's and R300's and Dynaudio Focus 110's and they all sounded fantastic (Dyn's were a difficult drive and you could hear that when the volume was upped)!

They should sound really good but won't quite have the top-end refinement of the 'i' series.

They should be awesome little speakers for their size (hopefully)
