Has anyone had the chance to compare the Dynaudio 140 vs. 160? Also, can anyone give a comparison between the Dynaudio Contour 1.4 and the B&W 805D? I just heard the latter yesterday and liked them very much, but I've also heard the Contours and they were nice, too. I just haven't heard them in the same room or close enough together in time to have a good read on the differences. Not heard the 140 or 160 yet.

How to come up with money for new speakers is a real conundrum; but, I loved those speakers!

Doug,

We saw them as shown in the picture and listened to some orchestral music (Mahler) and a Louis Armstrong piece. The scale with which these speakers presented the orchestra was superb. The room was also HEAVILY designed and treated...walls had angled wooden diffusers, and such. All in all, I think we both thought Vienna Acoustics had a very nice product in the Musik.
