need more smoothness


I own B&W CDM 1NT's and have a love-hate "relationship"
with them. Excellent finich, great mid and detail but
violins sounds to sharp. Maybe I buy other speakers or hope they do well with smooth electronics such as the LINN
Classik system.
Are the B&W's with a linn classik a good match ?
Maybe I'm a little bit hi fi - neurotical.

Some of the smoothest sounding speakers available use metal tweeters. All metal does not resonate at the same frequency. Metal can be treated to alter its resonate characteristics. etc etc.

You really need to list your entire system. Also a detailed description of your listening room and placement would help.

B&W's can sound wonderfully smooth with the right gear. Every link in the chain matters with B&W's. That said, there are smoother sounding speakers available, many of which aren't as demanding of the upstream components.
