Help with ringing bass from Dynaudio C1
Having heard these speakers more times than I can count Id say there is an issue w/C1s.If your running the system in the same room with other speakers and you dont hear the problem,,its your Dynaudios as this is most certainly not common 
Dynaudio C1 and Pass amp
IMO not enough uuumph for those speakers 
JBL lovers
Bad move.Been there,done it more than once.As a matter of fact just sold a pair of mc60s..Boring!!!If going vintage buy better speakers ie Tannoys.There are current speakers that will do what you want on all formats of music.IMO 
No love for the REL S series anymore?
Yea,even the B series is down.A B-3 sold on ebay the other for under $500in nice shape.IMO, the issue with the storm 3 is its flabby and slow,I think its because of the ported system unlike the Strata 3.You put it up against a great or even good s... 
Going monoblock?
Sell it and move on..but if you love the 252/famous mac house sound) dont buy the 452..I go with a 402 or 501s... 
No love for the REL S series anymore?
The last 3 Rel storm 3s on ebay were listed at "buy it now " at $700...no interest/no sales...the last one that actually sold was under $500 in wood...I never said they had build issues with that sub,just said it sounded bad.Compare it to the stra... 
Mcintosh Amps w/ B&W 801'S
Being a Mac amp owner (although its in the crate at present) and having heard the 800 series too many times IMO that combo is the wrong way to go.I would go with faster amps.Mac is just too slow and colored(famous mac house sound)and with the spea... 
No love for the REL S series anymore?
IMO, the storm is not one of their finest.Most recognize this and hence the lack of interest..Ive seen them as low as 450ish and still dont sell.I personally wouldnt want one again at any price 
vintage speakers
IMO,I agree with Johnk.Most of any of those lines are better than what you are considering..Mac speakers blow and thats a bad thing!Just my opinion 
Speaker recommendation please, please, please
IMO, I would possibly go in another direction.As a present owner of Raidho,having heard most of your short list speakers,and at one point in life listening to similar music I would maybe upgrade the amp and see what ya think.Given the other gear y... 
B&W 802d - Power, Help/ Opinion please
IMO your on the right track,first time ive actually heard suggestions of amps that would help in what your speakers lack.Detail and speed come to mind.I would never match Mac,Classe or similiar amps as again IMO it just makes a bad thing worse.Alt... 
Tannoy vs Klipsch
IMO, having owned many versions of both makers but not the models your inquiring about I would buy Tannoy any day over Klipsch.....but if you want to step out of the box lots of speakers that better both and will work amazing with your amps which ... 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
Hows this..not my cup of tea,lol 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
...outside the fact B&W now out sources everythink outside the 800 series to China and Abbey road studios means very little to me as far as what a great speaker sounds like,im as serious as a heart attack.The original poster asked "for general... 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
Mapman.I agree with what your saying.IMO its an old brand with an established name.Doesnt mean anything really to me.My closest B&W dealer reps lots of speakers including Magico.In converstaion I asked him about B&W,his comments were custo...
