New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I meant to say WWP- not Sasha Vs. | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid More speakers today. B&W 803 and 801s with Mac gear (no 802’s unfortunately). Clear and crisp with the 803’s predictably lacking in bass energy and sounded “small” probably because they were flanked by other speakers and were too close togeth... | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Nice looking system and I appreciate the offer. I leave tomorrow but will let you know when I come back. | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Well I listened to some speakers (in Atlanta) today. Borresen X3, Sonus Faber Stradivari, WIlson Sasha V and Watt Puppies. All in different rooms and different electronics (but all excellent- Mac, D’Agostino etc.). I used known and new source ma... | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Stay tuned (no pun). I’ll get to some shops this Fall. | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Yes GIK on the walls, ceiling and bass traps in the corners. Even my 20 something kids wonder about it, but not after I play something they really know and like. MGMT’s Little Dark Age is a fabulous recording (CD). | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I have a plan. I'll go listen to some speakers. Make a decision and assuming I like something I'll get them. I have a buyer for my 801s- I won't hand them over until I get the new ones installed and prefer them after a side by side comparison. If... | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid First world problems! | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Thanks. I do have a pair of KEF LS50 and matching sub in another room in sub optimal setting just for TV. I’m impressed by the SQ for the size, build and price. They sound good on their own but playing the same piece through the 801s, you realize ... | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid As I’ve explained above, in-home audition is not possible, hence the enquiry here. You could tell me that you owned 801s (S2 Mk III) and moved to brand X and found them a significant overall improvement. But only if it’s true. Btw- I’ve lived in... | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid That’s the thing. I can experiment with things like DACs and bring them back and forth in my carry on. Speakers not so much. Maybe I should just get a killer DAC and be done with it 🤓 | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid One consideration I would add is resale. These could be my last set of speakers. Or perhaps not. A more esoteric brand of speaker will be harder to shift. I'm inclined to stick with a better know brand. When I throw that into the mix it favors s... | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid “Afraid” was too strong a word. Apprehensive is better. And exciting. | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I'll put Focal on the list. Thanks. | |
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Ohm? I didn't know that they were still around. Who knew. |
