| Moving up from B&W CM9 dnanstad,You might want to check out the Monitor Audio Silver 10. I listened at length to the Silver 8 when looking for new speakers(the Silver 10 was outside my budget). I ended up with B&W 683 S2s.I really like MA and B&Ws way with music... | |

| Anyone demo or using new B&W 683 S2 @joey_v I agree. It's nice to read your POV with your extensive experience with very high-end speakers.I hope to enjoy them for many years. It will be interesting to see how long it takes for the Continuum mid-range driver to make it to the 600 se... | |
| PMC Fact 3 with hegel h160 or accuphase 350 Although I haven't heard it I'm sure the Accuphase would be great and unless your room is huge and open 100 quality watts should be fine.Two other amps to consider would the Marantz PM11S3 and the Yamaha A-S2100. They, along with the Accuphase hav... | |
