Good speakers under 10K. Legacy would also be a good choice. At your upper price range you could get a new pair of Focus HD's. This is a truly full range speaker with good midrange resolution, smooth non fatiguing highs and extended bass. You can listen to these for hours... | |
B&W 803D vs 803Di I did listen to both. Extensively. Actually several days. I stand by my opinion. | |
B&W 803D vs 803Di Budt. There was nothing wrong with the setup or the speakers in question. Sometimes one persons slight improvement is another ones vast improvement, but hey, you heard what you heard. I respect that. If you look at what B&W did as far as the u... | |
B&W 803D vs 803Di I compared the B&W 802D against the 802 Diamond at a Hi-end dealer. Same room, same electronics, same music and loudness levels. From my experience these two systems sounded almost identical. Scary close IMO. Even the salesperson thought they ... | |
B&W 804D vs 803S Sorry, my mistake. | |
B&W 804D vs 803S No, I'm not a dealer. Just a audiophile who owns B&W and has some experience with the line and a opinion. Yes it would be wise to take your speakers to a dealer and determine for yourself. | |
Legacy Studio circa 1990? Sorry about my spelling, should have edited. | |
B&W 804D vs 803S Without question, the Diamond version 804 is a better choice over the older 803s. The Diamond tweeter has a much smoother response and faster transient speed over the aluminum tweeters. This all translates (IMO) to a more realistic presentation ri... | |
Legacy Studio circa 1990? I have had Legacy speakers during that time period. The Studio version I believe you are looking at have a aluminum dome SEAS tweeter and (I think) a SEAS poly cone woofer. The yellow cone Kevlar version Studios were diffently a improvement in the... | |
Any McIntosh C48 owners out there? Question. Where does the C-45 fit in with these Mac preamps? That is, if it fits in at all. | |
B&W 805D2 or Magico Q1? Missionloonery, wow, you must have sat up all nite thinking up that last post...LOL | |
Snell EIV: refoam or replace? The Smell EIV's are nice sounding speakers. Been along time since I listened to a pair, but what I remember they were very good. Prefered them to similar priced Vandersteens. Repair would be recommended. Should cost well under $150. If you would l... | |
If you would have to choose between Focal and B&W. Sosico,This should be your call. Remember, the only dumb question is the one that's not asked. | |
Searching for new speakers: Wilson, B&W, ?? Larry, don't worry. No trap here. Just glad to hear a civil comment about the B&W's. Yes I own a pair of the "infamous" 802D's. I also have heard the midrange coloration you have heard, but I found out that experimenting with different interco... | |
Searching for new speakers: Wilson, B&W, ?? Lrsky....the B&W,s colorations will make you nuts.Could you please elaborate? |
