I dont find the yamaha 80's to be anything like the ns-10's I find them to be like non-mushy mackie 8's. The hs50's are much more like ns-10's to me, but often need a sub for a lot of work, I find it had to guess based on looking at the cone, what the lows are doing, compared to the way you can look at the ns-10's and know, but that could be uust from years and years on ns-10's

I love the yamaha 80's and I love the krk vxt 6's so far. I own two pairs of hs-50's and love those as well, coupled with a sub. I think any of these speakers are fine if you take the time to learn them

I sometimes find the yamaha 80's hard to work with over a long stretch, witht the mellower 50's and krk's easier in that department
