| B&W vs Vandersteen? I never heard them with the mac . I still can't see it solving the 3-5 khz region but I guess ya never know till ya try. I will try and find a pair to demo... In the meantime I have a torus on the way. | |
| B&W vs Vandersteen? As a last ditch effort I am going to try a big kick ass power conditioner( torus) and a bigger amp( maybe a 600 watt per channel). Maybe that will wake the 802Ds up.I know 330 per channel of bryston power isn't enough.Maybe a digital amp is the an... | |
| B&W vs Vandersteen? If you think the 802D is fast and dynamic then I can only conclude you have never lived with a really dynamic speaker. There is no mistaking the compression of the 802D for those who have.I am simply telling it like it is. Why has B&W went cha... | |
| B&W vs Vandersteen? Well, I have always been a fan of B&W but I have to eat crow now.I have the 802D, I bought them blind because I wasn't able to audition them. I have owned many B+W speakers and the 802D are the second I am not happy with.They are SLOW/compress... | |
| B&W 800 D or 801 D? How do you know the 801D is to be discontinued in the next generation of the 800 series? | |

| Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000 My comments apply to redbook only as I haven't tried sacd.. | |
| Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000 I have had sony scd-1, MF A5, simaudio moon eclipse, esoteric XO-3 se, bryston bcd-1. It doesn't have the razor sharp imaging of some of these units but tonally it is better than any of them ( imo). At a msrp of $1500 I can't think of anything tha... | |
| sony xa5400es or marantz sa15s2? I have no experience with the Marantz but for a msrp of $1500 the Sony is an absolute steal imo. My most recent players have been Esoterix XO-3 se, bryston bcd-1, simaudio moon eclipse and MF A5.The Sony doesn't quite have the razor sharp imaging ... | |
| Revel Studio 1, B&W 802N or Sonus Faber Cremonas To the original op. My question would be; what type of music do you listened to most and at what levels? Do you really like to crank it sometimes or do you listen only at low to moderate levels? This provides a basis for a more informed recommenda... | |
| Review: Sony SCD-XA5400ES CD Player Well, just a quick note.I connected this player in my system consisting of B&W 802D,bryston 4b sst and bryston BP26. I only tried it connected via balanced outs..My most recent players have been MF A5, Simaudio moon eclipse, bryston bcd-1 and ... | |
| Zu Essence vs B&W I have B&w 802D but for your musical taste I would go with tannoys all the way. | |
| Review: Sony SCD-XA5400ES CD Player I just ordered one of these to hold me over till I get either an emmlabs or berkeley.Hey, at 1200 bucks it isn't much of a risk. If anyone is interested I can post my observations of the player after a few weeks. | |
| Emmlabs CDSA Just to clarify;I am asking about the 11k model( CDSA SE) and not the 25K model.Thanks for the input.I hope to see some more. | |
| DCS Scarlatti WOW!!! That was fast... Thanks for posting your opinions.While the Scarlatti is out of my league I think I want to try the Berkeley. |
