Check out audio advisors in Palm Beach Florida for the CM8's, if you really want them, they are running a deal buy one speaker get the second 1/2 off which works out to $1650 for a pair of CM8's (sat. is the last day to take advantage of this deal)/ 2250 for the cm9's, etc. I'm deciding between CM9, 804s or 805s, so frustrating. Listened to the 805di today, cm8 and cm9, and all sound great. Funny the 805di sounded to bright until he kicked in the sub and then what a huge difference, unbelievable sound. The 8 and 9 sounded great, although would have gone with the 9 over the 8.
B&W CM8 or 805?
Hello,
I am about to pull the trigger on some B&W CM8s at the local Best Buy/Magnolia and I was wondering if I should opt for Nautilus 805s instead. I can get a pair of used Nautilus 805 and stands for about the same $2K that the CM8s are going for new (w/ attractive 36 month no interest financing).
I am an apartment dweller and do not want to overload my living room or piss off my neighbors. So, if I got the CM8s I would definitely be plugging the ports with the supplied bung to de-emphasize the low end.
Amplification comes in the form of a Primare SPA21 and I listen to just about everything save Country and Orchestral. I love the B&W sound signature so I'm pretty set on these two.
Thank you in advance for your advice.
