| B&W 800 D series vs Magico, Avalon, Wilson, Focal I have a pair of B&W 802D's and they image fantastically. Took a lot of time moving them back and forth along with toe-in to achieve this. There is much air around the images to create a really good illusion. This includes WIDTH and DEPTH. Had... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle Chill out. Just a little audiophile humor on a subject with turntable tonearm/cartridge rake angle that a lot of people take WAY to seriously. Yes, I have a turntable. Had one for several decades and found a lot of other adjustments that are far m... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle Stringreen. I know what your problem is. It's the Vandersteens! | |
| B&W D1 vs D2 Diamond D1 vs Diamond D2 The newer D-2's have narrow chrome ring trim around the cone drivers and chrome trim ring around the screen cover of the Diamond tweeter. The older D series has the letters B&W on the lower grill cloth where as the D-2 has the names bowers&... | |
| Speaker cables for B&W?? I've been using MIT AVT 1's (bi-wired version) on my B&W 802Ds with great results. A true bargain pair of cables in my opinion. | |
| B&W 802 N vs. D Crispy, this thread ended almost 4 years ago, but for what it is worth I own a pair of B&W 802D's and agree with most of your assessment except the comment about the woofers. Yes they have some ripeness in the upper bass range but placement an... | |
| World's best small speaker? Another vote for the Serblin Accordos. | |
| Franco Serblin R.I.P. What happens to Ktema? Sorry Tboooe, I gave you the fax number. Phone is (619)223-8151. | |
| Franco Serblin R.I.P. What happens to Ktema? Tboooe. I also had the chance to listen to Accordos. If I had the money I would have bought them on the spot. I listened to them in San Diego also. I believe the place that has them is called Stereo Unlimited. The owner's name is Bruce.(619)223-47... | |
| HELP B&W 802D or Revel Ultima Salon2 Bhobba. Get your facts straight. The upper bass hump is approx. 6db, not 10db. The 4db difference you describe is very large in measurement terms. If your friend measured a 10db hump then the room and/or placement is the problem. I'm not saying th... | |
| Cambridge Audio 840C vs Ayre CX-7e? I have owned both the Rega Apollo and Cambridge 840C. The 840C is better across the board than the Rega. I now own the Cambridge 851C and it is better than both of the above. Cambridge had the 840C in production for over six years before introduci... | |
| B&W CM9s....what power is needed. Good info Paraneer, I didn't know about the reliability problems. I had listened to the AVR 600 at a audio salon in San Diego paired with B&W 802 Diamond speakers. I was very impressed by the sound. To bad that it may have reliability issues. ... | |
| B&W CM9s....what power is needed. I'm not sure if this would be what you're looking for, but I recently read a review from a notable reviewer named Peter Moncrief. He reviewed the Arcam AVR-600 HT receiver using his B&W 802D speakers and said this receiver beat any preamp/powe... | |
| Franco Serblin RIP I recently listened to a pair of stand mounted "Accordos" out in San Diego. This was a relatively new design from his new company after he left Sonus Faber. This was one of the most amazing sounding loudspeakers I've ever heard. Would have bought ... |
