Survey: B&W

Actively bi-amped Matrix 800's

I honestly think B&W is overpriced...that being said...the entry level 601 s3 monitors are great little speakers...not much bass...but in a small room...they have that signature huge "soundstage" B&W is known for...a very overlooked speaker...and only $450...as you climb up the B&W line...the performance vs. price ladder is not in favor for B&W...there is Vandersteen,Maggies,etc. that really set the standard....

Matrix 3----pre Kevlar

I was really amazed at Phasecorrect's statement about B&W's price. I would say the opposite. Without going into the many virtues of the Nautilus speakers:
I would put my Dan D'Agostino's designed, actively biamped B&W800's up against almost anything at any price. The Wilson X-1's can't match up to them. My speakers my not be cheap ($15,000 + $4,000 x-over = $19,000), but in the arena of $80,000 speakers, they were an amazing bargain.

In my not so humble opinion,
