| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? Silverline Audio Sonata ii | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k If I had to choose B&W 801 D4 Walnut finish. The design and look does it for me. If not those, 2nd option is JBL K2 S9900. | |
| I can't go for that. Hall & Oates my favorite band all time. So many hits and so enjoyable to listen to. Guaranteed to be played at any of my BBQ, 4th of July is coming. | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. @cd318 . I buy what ever the wallet fits and agree with you. The world is globally sourced with so many MFG. Consumers are well educated today and know a good buy when they see one along with using the judgement of diminishing returns. | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. @cd318 , Some things can be judge by price, but for luxury goods like audio equipment.

| the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data? @grislybutter , its an important factor, no one wants to spend XXX amount dollars on something and its ugly, you have to stare at it. For me sound will be sound, how detail and refined will also depend on the amp and souce. Call me shallow and m... | |
