I was astonished, and the dealer was too.
He's more a B&W guy (he also sells a lot of Wilson and Focal), but he admitted the B1 was in a totally different league here: the music was in the room instead of coming out of the speakers, and the sound was much more life like. Even on mono tracks the B1 was an obvious winner and what was remarkable: the bass of the B1's was cleaner, and more defined.

I chose the G2 over the BW 802 Di which I thought was an obvious choice (sound wise). I have never heard the B1 but I never imagined it would outperform the 802Di as well, even in bass. I don't doubt Bart's experience so my respect for Vivid has increased even further!
