I don't understand that they don't play very loud. I've had 804's,803's,and now 802's. Yes they love power but my 803's played extremely loud with a Mark Levinson #383. Turnitup1234, your last paragraph explains what the B&W will sound like with good up-stream gear. They will let you know if something is askew. Peace and Good Listening,Pat.
buying today,need your thoughts
today a local in Santa Barbara is BRINGING to MY HOUSE
B&W N803
Arcam CD 23
Kimber bifocal 4'
Kimber 1011 qty 1
I get to hear these thru the Perreaux 2150B and SM 2 I own.
I am buying the above for $3,000.
He is also offering the Plinius CD LAD for a great price as well...maybe $500.
So, I wanted to know:
cable ideas matching the Perreaux and Arcam and N803's
other things to help..power conditioners, cords, etc I read about from you all.
If I buy the CD LAD, do you think it is best to try it with the 2150b instead of the SM 2 to see how that sounds as a total unit?
would there be a good idea on an amp to use with the CD LAD?
should I bi amp?
is the 2150B and SM2 a good match for the N803/CD23
what would you do...
I isten to mostly rock, guitar players, Clapton,Santana, Allman Brothers, also jazz,miles and coltrane etc and acoustic like Hedges,.
I definitely like to TURN IT UP
and really desire.....the sound to be clear and refined and powerful as I increase the volume when I know a great part is coming. That is why I am spending this money...I dont want to play it loud, and then hear imperfections that get in the way of the total love and passion of the music playing.
thanks
