| B&W 801 vs 803s I have two home theatre systems at home. MY main listening room i use for both ht and stereo listening. I do watch a lot of concert dvd's. With the Wilsons and the Egglestons i was using Krell TAS 5 channel amp. Before that I used a 5 channel Clas... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s For five grand you can buy new Merlins, used Egglestons, Watt puppy and sophia. Used Dali ms5's, revels and Sonus as well as a host of others. Those are some of the models i have tried over the past few year and they all in my opinion sond better ... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s The nice thing about audiogon is you can take a chance on speakers you may have never tried before. If you change your mind or just want to try something else you shouldn't lose much money at all.I have purchased probably 10 or more pair of speake... | |
| Best Used Speaker Under $4,000 w/ Respectable Lows I had a couple pair of Merlin vsms and the mme. I loved the mids and highs but thw lows were a little weak in my main room which is 20 x 24 x 17. I used 2 jl 113's with them and that gave me some good punch.My 2nd room has a 9 foot ceiling and the... | |
| Is difference between B&W 802D & 800D worth price? go to your local dealer and tell them what you are thinking. They can either try and make a deal with you or kiss your business goodby. Prices on Audiogon have forced many retailers to lower their pricing policies. In this market they will do what... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s The fact of the matter is it can be very hard to listen to most of the high end speakers we are talking about here, except for the B&W, before we purchase them.. Wilson, Eggleston, Thiel, Merlin etc are not that easy to find and one may have t... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s read the post Budt thats not what was said.I was happy with B&W back when i didnt know about Wilson, Merlin DAli and eggleston etc. NOw that I know they exist why would i want to buy B&W.Just like I was somewhat happy with the way my vete ... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s I had 803 Nautilus and sold them about 3 years ago. I then purchased some used watt puppy 6's for about $7000. the difference was night and day. I liked the 6's so much i also bought watt puppy 7's. I also had some Sophias up until aobut 5 months ... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s thats my point! How anyone can compare a B&W to a Wilson is beyond me. The Sophias are ok, but the watt puppies, espcially 7's and 8's are not even close to any 800 series B&W speakers. I have heard people who pay what we do to buy speake... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s BTW j stereoI recently worked at one of the largest Chevy dealers in the country. I lost a deal on a Z06 because it took our service department over 2 weeks to intstall a new clutch. This car had 13,000 miles on it. The car was bought and paid for... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s btw based on what some of you guys are inferring. You are paying close to retail for speakers? New 7's could be purchased for under $13,000 over 2 years ago. Comparing retil prices on speakers is not even relevant. If you are paying anywhere close... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s J stereo. Drive a Porsche and then drive a Vette. I have owned several of both and they are non even in the same ball park.The Porsche is reliable, handles way better and is just as fast and way more fun to drive. The vette is like riding in a lum... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s you can buy watt puppy 8's new in the crate for $16000 or maybe even less.you can buy used 7's for $10,000 or less. And they are far more speaker than the B&W's he is talking about | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s Being wealthy has nothing to do with how long you keep your speakers. The great thing about Audiogon is you can try many different speaker brands and if you decide to try something else you don't have to lose your ass when you sell them.Just make ... | |
| B&W 801 vs 803s I have owned several B&W speakers over the past 10 years including 802 and 803 n's as well as some 801 Matrtix. About two years ago I wass going to listen to and buy 801 D's. I happened to hear them along sied of Wilson Watt Puppy 7's and 8's.... |
