Any feedback on the new B&W 802D's
I agree with Jppenn,If I had taken my time and auditioned the Watt Puppy 7s more with other equipment, in particular Ayre equipment, I would have saved up and bought those instead of impulsively buying the 802Ds. I love the 802D sound, it is very ... 
What song best sums up the previous year?
Sorry Uppermidfi, there is nothing besides rumor which attributes that quote to him. Check out Evita's link as well. 
Help Needed: Is my system balanced?
I think you definitely need better speakers. The difference you will get between a Rotel RCD-1072 and that Naim CD5i for 1k difference in price is much much smaller than the difference you would have gotten by getting a B&W 703 or 804 speaker,... 
what is the best sub for $1500.00 or less
I recommend Blimpie's BLIMPIE Best sub. Very liquid mayo highs with meaty extensions to drive it. Oh, it is also extremely cheap compared to most subs being sold on this website. Talk about inflation, sheesh! Oh, get the combo, even more liquid hi... 
Do You Remember Your First CD Player?
My first CD player was in 1987. I don't remember which company anymore even though they were still very new. I do remember my next one after it though somewhere between late 1988 and early 1989. My parents bought me a Carver CD player along with a... 
Any feedback on the new B&W 802D's
Compuman99,They sound excellent, but i'm selling mine to buy a pair of Watt puppy 7s. I'm not sure how they compare to the Sophia though, that is a cheaper speaker than the Puppy 7s. The 802Ds do sound excellent. I have a classified up for them if... 
What song best sums up the previous year?
I think I'm trying to say that we are up against an intractible enemy and also remind what Churchill said decades ago. Anyone who is not a liberal when young doesn't have a heart. But anyone who has not become conservative once fully grown up does... 
B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass?
Charlie101,Your actions speak to your deficits much more than any insult anyone could conjure up to describe you. You treat people like objects, like you treat the subject matter of B&W speakers. What is wrong with working at Wal Mart BTW? Cha... 
B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass?
"Coming from you that means absolutely nothing. I've read your other posts and it is clear you have nothing meaningful to offer."Nothing? Why, dear sir, do you keep responding then? 'The lady doth protest too much, methinks.' 
B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass?
Charlie101,"It is a subjective hobby, no one made Charlie101 the authority on the best speaker, there is no such authority, and your comments make you seem like an ignoramus."Notice I said, "make you seem like an ignoramus"..."The only things wort... 
B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass?
Oh, Charlie101 is another B&W basher, go figure. Look a few posts up... Boy the insecure really come out of the woodwork to bash B&W when they see their paychecks fading.I'm actually getting rid of the B&W speakers I owned because I pr... 
B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass?
I wouldn't lend any credence to anything Judy426 says about B&W, he/she has a history of bashing B&W on these fora which can be seen by viewing his/her previous posts and posting habits. This person goes out of his/her way to actively insu... 
need opinions on new cdp
If you don't mind a universal stereo format player, check out the Ayre C-5xe, it is three separate players in one, i.e. when it uses SACD hardware, the CD and DVD-A hardware is turned off, when it uses DVD-A hardware the CD and SACD hardware is tu... 
B&W 802D vs Wilson WATT Puppy
I currently own a pair of B&W 802Ds. I decided to go out last week and audition the Ayre C-5xe universal stereo player for my system. The dealer had the Ayre C-5xe set up with an Ayre amplifier and an Ayre Preamp and the amplifier was connecte... 
tyler linbrook signatures vs. b&w 802
Why do I get the feeling this thread is a Tyler marketting campaign? Reminds me of all those Axiom threads on AVSForums awhile back.
