Cables for B&W Nautilus 802

Folks,
Can't we just get along. As always the true value of any speaker is in the ears of the beholder. Just remember that for every gorgeous woman out there, there is some guy out there that is tired of _____ her. As for the N802's being on the brite side...I have noticed a significant difference when replacing front end gear & amps. I use all Transparent cables:Reference MM Balanced interconnects, Reference Digital AES/EBU 110 Ohm to Transport and Ultra MM Speaker Cables and have been very happy with the results IMHO.

Problem is, Judy426 singles out B&W as "sonic dogs". She never criticizes any other brand of speaker. So either 1) every other speaker out there is perfect or 2) she has some axe to grind.
I'd vote for #2.

I owned some 804Ns, cherry veneer, and felt they were superb in every way imaginable ... design appeal, construction, and sound. I never felt cheated by the bass, as some did, nor did they strike me as too forward. I used a small class-A Musical Fidelity 20-watter amp and then switched to a Classé CAP101. They sounded better with the MF, but there you go. I did sell them after 18 months or so solely because they would only come to life with some watts, which means that I didn't enjoy them at lower volumes, such as soft music for early Sunday morning paper/coffee. I switched to Tyler Taylo Refs and found that I could smile happily at low volumes. The B&Ws, though, were worth the money to me.

Cdc, No axe to grind. I simply prefer speakers that reproduce music without listening fatigue. There was a B&W speaker that I could tolerate. I believe it was the Silver Signature. Must have been the late 90's that I heard it but the price was around 8K if I'm not mistaken. As "good" as it was, at that price there were (are) a dozen speakers that sound just as fine at much lower prices.
BTW, what make and model of speakers do you own? Wouldn't be Bow and Wow would it?
