Wilson Audio, Talon, Rockport and B&W


It's been fun after trying out some gears and cables in my system and see how each differ from one another.
Now come to the point that I might need to do my final upgrade... the big showcase of all... the mouth as some will say...
I have all those speakers on my next upgrade list.

Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 7
Talon Firebird
Rockport Merak II/ Sheritan II
B&W Signature 800

I have heard great things about those speakers and wondering if anybody have any real life experience with above speakers?
Which of the speaker provide better bottom end, detail bass, big sound stage and still very balance in all area without colored? ( I mean, at their price, they shouldn't have any weak points in any area...right?...)

any thoguhts/experiences on the speakers will be greatly appreciated.

Mbadscl,

In there respective systems.

The Watt Puppy 7 I was not impressed with at all it was dull, lifeless and muddy.

The new B&W 800D driven by the MF KW500 was a dream to listen to. My only complaint was the bass was a little over powering.

The SonusFaber Stradivarius were also a dream to listen to. Again my only complaint was the bass was a little muddy.

Ok now for the important stuff. As I stated in their respective systems and rooms. At this price point thouroughly audition each speaker even if means packing up your gear and taking it to the dealer. You will then eliminate everything but your room.
