B&W HTM - 1 OR a pair of 805N's? Hello Dan, I don't think the 805 Nautilus speakers are magnetically shielded although B&W claims they are. The HTM-1 is basically a 804 N laying on its side I think the HTM-1 ability to produce better midbass and lower freqencies over the 805N... | |
B&W Nautilus 802 versus Matrix 801's Hello, I'm a B&W Nautilus owner and former Matrix ownwer. You will have absolutely no regrets by moving up to the Nautilus. The difference in the sound quality will be night and day, stereo or home theater. 3 of the many improvements in Nautil... | |

B&W 803N vs REVEL F30. Which is a better choice?? Hello, I have heard them both. I prefer the B&W 804/803. If you have enough money for the B&W 803(5000.00) than I would suggest to invest a little more and purchase a used or demo pair of N 802's which can be found for as little as $5500.0... | |
Proceed AMP 5? or wait for Krell Showcase amp? I have the Amp 5 and Nautilus 804's. I love this amp. It is definitely the best five channel amp on the market! It sounds fantastic with both movies and music. I have compared the Amp 5 to the Bryston 9b, ADA PTM-6150, and the KAV 500. The Proceed... | |
bad sounding SACD's Telarcs 1812 overture by Kunzel multi channel SACD. Very disappointing. Sounded better as a standard CD. | |
Proceed HPA-2 with Nautilus 803-804 I own a pair of the Nautilus 804's and I just demo'd a HPA 2. The sound was excellent never harsh or grainy. I would advise against using a power conditioning power cable, they seem to slow the amp down. Stay with the standard power cable. I'm als... | |
M&K MX 5000 THX MkII vs Velodyne HGS-18 Both are excellent subwoofers. I have had both in my system. In my opinion the M&K sounds a little more accurate on movie soundtracks. I prefer the velodyne on 2-channel music. I currently own the M&K 5000 MKII |
