    B&W 604s3 VS CDM 7NT

    Yoon Lee I'll be curious to know what you think after you audition them. Just last week I audtioned both those speakers and liked the 604 S3 better. I'm not sure why, maybe it was the music or the electronics. I do plan to audition both again in the future. Good Luck! Mike

    B&W 604s3 VS CDM 7NT

    Just last week I auditioned the 604 S3 and the CDM 9NTs and I liked the 604s better. Maybe its my taste in music or maybe its the electronics I heard them with. In either case, try auditioning them side by side. Good Luck! Mike

    Which would you choose and why?

    If you had the choice between the B&K AVR 305 or Rotel RSP-1066 with Rotel RMB-1075 which would you choose, and, Why? I always thought separates would be better, however the dealer is suggesting the B&K 305. He said the 305 uses the same components as the B&K Reference 30. Is this true...

    confusion ???

    Today I spent some time auditioning speakers again. Everything I heard (Dynaudio 1.3SE, B&W CDM9NT, B&W DM 604, Paradigm Studio 100s and Studio 40s)sounded great. I know this is quite a price range. The Dynaudio's were superb. With the exception of the Dynaudio's the B&W DM 604 were the...

    What is the first step towards HT?

    I'm new to HT and have been looking to purchase a HT system. I haven't even thought about the video and have been concentrating on speakers first. I eventually will add a wide screen tv, but I thought speakers first, amp/processor or receiver second, then dvd player and tv. Just a beginners...

    Paradigm v. Dynaudio - no contest.....

    Why didn't you compare floor standing models like the Dynaudio Contour 1.8MKII to the Studio60s. I'm looking for speakers and have been considering the Paradigms as well as the Dynaudio and a few others, however, I haven't heard the Contour line only the Audience line. I've heard the B&W CDM9...

    Amp/Receiver questions

    I'll have to check the Paradigm Studio 80's as compared to the JM LAbs, B&W's and Dynaudio. Every dealer I've been to carries them although none have recommended them. I'm not sure why? If I get a chance and if I can find a dealer with PSB's I'll check them out as well. There have been quite...

    Amp/Receiver questions

    I was looking at the Audience 82 in front, 122 center and either 42 or 52 in the rear. Since they are 4 ohm speakers I want to be sure the electronics are good quality and can drive these speakers. I have not been able to audition PSB but several people have recomended them. I was looking at...

    Amp/Receiver questions

    I have a couple of questions maybe you guys can help me with. I’m in the process of auditioning for a HT setup used 60% for music and 40 % for HT use. I’m leaning towards purchasing Dynaudio Audience speakers. However for the electronics, the dealer has recommended B&K AVR305 or AVR 307...

    Speaker suggestions

    Well I was finally able to briefly listen to Dynaudio Audience 82 side by side with B&W CDM-9NT. The B&W sounded brighter to me, although I'm not convinced the Dynaudio sounded better as I was only able to listen to them briefly. I will be heading back to listen to some of my music and my...

    Well I was leaning towards B&W, however, I was going to audition them along side some Dynaudio. I will be burning my own CD shortly. I like classic rock, however, my wife likes the Mark Anthony, Ricky Martin type. She'll listen to mine and I'll listen to hers. If I move my budget up on...
