| No bass on B&W 800D2 @seb_audio Are you using the jumper plates on the speaker terminals? Give them a check. I removed mine and replaced them with some cable jumpers and it made an immediate difference. All the best. | |

| KEF Meta speakers vs non meta I also have the Reference 5’s non meta and was able to hear the Reference 3’s but not the. 5’s. We have a new dealer here and they are having some an event tomorrow evening and a KEF Rep is supposed to be there, so I hope to ask him a bunch of que... | |
