B&W 805 versus Dynaudio 52SE


I'm more or less committed to one of these as I have a store credit at a dealer who stocks only these two brands.
I will be using Musical Fidelity X-Ray CD player and X-150 amp.
I'd welcome opinions of the strengths of these speakers, especially if used with Musical Fidelity gear. Interesting to hear what interconnects/speaker wire you have used in such combinations too.
Also...Is the much more expensive B&W Signature 805 overkill in view of my other equipment? Or would it be a smart purchase?
Thanks.

B&W's as one person here wrote are Revealing, I do not think that is an accurate way to describe them. B&W Speaker color the sound, they add high frequencies. Dynaudio are known for having the best tweeter you can buy.

If you like a bight speaker go with B&W if you want real accurate sound I would suggest Dynaudio.

You are comparing a $900 speaker to to a $3,000 Why do you choose these models to compare? If you doesn't hear that big of a difference I would think it would be obvious save the $2100.
