Did you ever consider The Magnepan 20.7’s? |

No where around here to audition them. There are so many speakers too choose from. I'd love to have a weekend where vendors brought them to my house for audition, two by two

New MC462 and 803 D3s arrived today and all all hooked up and functioning wonderfully !! I don't have much wiggle room for speaker placement but I am experimenting a bit. I also have new interconnects and speaker wires, so everything is going to be breaking in in the next few weeks. Glad to be a member of the club !!

Oh yeah me as well, my dealer compares the 20.7 to the 803D3’s and says the B&W’s are more detailed and the 20.7 have a broader soundstage.

Thanks ps7256 and mcpaf76 ! So far I am thoroughly enjoying my new system ! Further more, my wife likes it, although she wouldn't "get it" if she saw the invoice .
On first listen I found the system very transparent and very "present" compared to my previous system (MC352 + N802s) and a bit bright. After 30 some hours I find the brightness diminishing (either my ears or the system) and a warmth emerging. The detail is amazing. When deep bass is present (rock and electronic music) it is fast and very tight ... just the way I like it ! I'm listening right now to some light jazzy guitar (Wes Montgomery) and he says "Hello" to all of you |

MintakaX, so good to hear that you are enjoying and all is going well with your new system I have noticed as well with the MC462 and B&W 804’s that there is a softness, but real musical clarity, particularly with Piano and orchestra, (Beethoven Piano Concerto 5). I was at my dealers today picking up a PS Audio Powerport and Noise Harvester and was checking out a pair of 802D3’s, gorgeous. I am so tempted at the moment. [emoji41]
