Well that sounds so much better with the nylon strings, the steels sound like a cat being strangled in comparison.
I've always felt that every player should have at least one nylon strung guitar in their arsenal, and not just for classical or Spanish music, the tonality of nylon strings just suits a lot of varied styles and by not having one then you are restricting the range of your possible playing. For instance I always played most traditional Irish tunes on nylon to get the harp sound.

No surprise to discover that some things work better on one than the other. And also some work better in Standard than DADGAD and vice-versa
