| used amp or amps for B&W 801's in home theater Jiminee crickets...A room that size you will need two subs or at minimum a JL Audio Fathom 13 or SVS PB13 Ultra just to achieve the bass from movies. No speaker can fill a room that size with authority or support of bass management. If going the B... | |

| best bang for buck on used ht speakers? maybe b&w? Baran:I nearly have the same as you and upgraded over time. I have the Pioneer Elite 94TXH as it had 140 wpc for my 602s..I bought a pair of CDM 7NTs and replaced those fronts with those CDMs and it made the world of difference especially in the b... | |

| Speaker Choices I would stear towards the Vanderstein 3A or even a Vonshweikert VR33. These are both relatively wall placement friendly and very musical. These also don't require gobbs of power to run amplifier wise. Really depends on your room and placement vs f... | |
| Question for you B&W guys I agree...I have owned B&W for years now and you will not really find a major or noticable difference other than less money in your bank account. Your mix is really ideal and if there are no qualms about it, there is no reason to move up the c... | |
| Towers with massive dynamics & soundstage $3k? I concur with the Tyler Acoustics...I purchased a set of Woodmere's just above your price point and they are phenomenal. I would give Tyler a call, he had a good deal on some custom made full range in his shop that were traded in not long ago. | |
