Considering moving on from B&W...

So a funny thing happened when I sold my MX122 and C2500 and replaced them with the Anthem AVM 90 and McIntosh C2700.....the 802's sound like completely different speakers. I must have listened to 20 hours of music either through the 2700 or multichannel through the Anthem and it's the B&W I remember falling in love with back in 2000. 

I think my next move is to remove the SCMS that are mounted way too high up the wall and replace with something from the new 7 series or an older 8 series. The tweeter is about 6 feet above my head. I wanted to see what the difference would be if I put some towers there instead, so I brought my Focal Aria 926's up and hooked them up instead. Sooo much better with Atmos, etc music wise. 

Good to hear you’d rediscovered your B&Ws. Given the right components and room they can definitely sing. 

Same dilemma here,  Still an owner of Nautilus B&W 803, I've had thoughts sometimes on moving on from them.  However, their warm sounding is very musical to me and given its price point when I got new vs. today market for new speakers cost anywhere from $10-15K, I just cannot make the change justifying it.  I've always wanted the 801 Nautilus but kept to my budget.  I've heard people either love or hate Zu Audio speakers.  Would be nice to audition speakers, but there's not many bricks n mortar stores around.  Equipment matching is key as well.
