Well... After a long session of switching between the Dali Epicon 6 and the Bowers & Wilkins 804D3's I came to the conclusion that I prefer the Bowers. I just placed my order of the fronts in high gloss black, only the sad thing is that they're sold out so I have to wait until 24-01-17 Will keep you guys updated

I'll second that call, good one Joey. Maybe this will affect the new furniture coming in also though?

Congratulations anyhow mate!

Thanks!

The idea is still to change the piece of furniture at the same time as when I'll order the center channel, which could be a while (a few months). First step after this is changing the SR6006 to the M17

I just read the Stereophile review of the Monitor Audio PL300 II speakers from November 2016.

I have the older PL300 and PL200 speakers which I have been very happy with.

If you get a chance I would definitely check the new speakers out.

Thanks for the tip, but I've already placed the order. And as I work at a HiFi shop which sells the 804's I get a great deal

Wow, that NAD looks beautiful from all angles, really different approach from their regular black boxes. How is the sound?

The first few notes were absolutely horrible haha. But after a few minutes that disappeared. Details, details and details... Even though I currently have it connected to simple speakers (Dali Opticon 1's I borrowed from work until the 804D3's are delivered) I'm hearing things I haven't heard before It also sounds very spacious and the amount of grip it has on the speakers is insane. Can't wait until the 804D3's are here

The B&W 804D3's were backorder even further than the last time so I already ordered the rear speakers. These came in stock a few days ago and yesterday I placed them on the wall. Just need to add the finishing touches with removing all cables for the rears from sight
