Snell Phantom B7 vs Snell B Minor

Mfslgoldcd - how do you like the Snell Phantom B7's compared to the Sonus Faber Extremas you own?

The Snell Phantom B7 is an amazing speaker . There is no comparison betweek the Snell B minor speakers. Of course its also unfair because the Snell B minor speakers were $3700 a pair verse the Phantom B7 speakers are $25,000 for the pair. I am a big Snell fan and owned many models over the last 25 years.

Let me tell you the Snell Phantom B7 out performed my B&W 800D speakers, and I mean hands down.

The Snell Phantom B7 speakers from initial conception through to production, every element and every detail that defines the $50K Snell Illusion A7 speakers has been measured, analyzed and documented for the sole purpose of establishing the engineering plan for Phantom B7.

To quote Snell:"Willing to sacrifice less than a third of an octave of bass, no more than 3dB of acoustic output and scaled to 75% in physical size, the bar was set….Phantom B7 was otherwise to replicate the Flagship Snell A7 speakers".

End of quote.

After seeing and listening to Snell Phantom B7 speakers recently, I bought a pair and traded in my B&W 800D speakers. These Snell Phantom B7 speakers are in my main reference system for critical listening and tons of enjoyment.

The Snell Phantom B7 is a must listen to anybody who wants to end the search for an ultimate speaker for budget in the $25K range.
