Are these Speakers the BEST on Planet Earth ?...

I heard the original, snail construction Nautilus driven by multiple Krell stacks and a custom outboard crossover at the B&W distributor in Mass.

I can’t tell you all how bored and disappointed I was with the sound that came out of them.

Honestly, the Matrix B&W before and Nautilus derived speakers after sounds much more fun and more interesting and transparent to me than the flagship Nautilus, which I have to admit to me was gorgeous as sculpture.

The idea of a best speaker doesn’t make sense on the face of it (absent theoretically perfect room correction). The simple truth is that a speaker which delivers (theoretically) “perfect” performance in a 3,000 cu foot room will sound very different (imperfect) in a 15,000 cu ft room.

Multiple Krell stacks. Meh 😑 

I am getting concerned. Why is kenjit conspicuously missing here?

@Geoffkait

Yeah, that may be why.
