B&W vs. Sonus Faber

Yes

I love how people talk about individual components having a defined sound.  Systems have defined sonic attributes in various rooms, but all else is extremely variable.  So much goes into the final sound of a system that discussing individual components having particular characteristics is misleading. I favor resolution because I want to hear everything in the music, right down to the traffic passing outside a club during a live recording.  Atmosphere needs resolution.  How you balance that resolution is key.  I love B&W’s diamonds...I have the 802D3’s. Power Cords, interconnects, speaker cables , room acoustics and amplifier characteristics all must work together in harmony.  

I have the 802D3’s and they can put you right into the studio or venue where the music was made...startlingly clear, dynamic and full of presence!!  Image placement and solidity are uncannily realistic.  Of course my REV MIT Cables from Joe Abrams are a huge part of it...2C3D technology is mind blowing if you want a huge realistic soundstage filled with detail and energy.

I have the 802D3’s which are revealing, but in the most glorious way.  They display so much complex harmonic information and tonal shadings that are simply not conveyed by most speakers.  My Krell delivers wonderful Class A Sonics and does so with tremendous dynamics and tonal accuracy through my MIT REV Cables.  Spooky holographic soundstaging with lifelike scale and density.  Room placement takes time...every little adjustment can make huge differences in your results.

Yes emergingsoul...I will update system.  MIT cables (since Matrix/MA series) really deliver everything I need from my system.  They deliver detail, exceptional dynamics and dynamic shadings plus accurate tonality and a huge 3D holographic soundstage with tremendous bass definition.  The atmosphere of the recording is laid bare to wander around in...truly remarkable experience.  Once heard, you can’t go back to conventional cabling.  BTW, the REV series from Joe Abrams is inexpensive for what they deliver and when compared to current SOTA from MIT.
