Can you expand anymore? How do the signatures compair to the regular 805's? May I ask what you payed for them?
Review: B & W Loudspeakers Nautilus 805 Monitor
Category: Speakers
I listen to all facets of music from classical SACD's to jazz and country and popular CD's. Accurate sound production is important with booming bass and screechy highs a real turn off. These little jewels blew me away, having tried so many highly rated esteemed monitors. The B&W's brought reality to my system. Soundstage, accurates sound reproduction, dynamics are their strong points with no discernible weakness's. If I could own any monitor, these would still be on the top of my list. I wish Stereophile would have left them in Class A, limited bass response. But then B&W would have a harder time selling the more expensive siblings. Guess that didn't go over to good. Enjoy the best bang for the buck in audiophile speakerdom. And feel free to experiment with biwiring, tube amps, analog records, and whatever fulfills your interests. These baby's are very accomodating. And they are drop dead gorgeous in the new Signature finishes. Happy listening.
