B&W vs. Sonus Faber

Dispersion is a trait not given much attention.  Seems really important for a smaller room.  A pain if sweet spot restricts where you sit. Hate that.  Need a wide open stage.

B&w being bright seems to reflect a more accurate portrayal of live performances which tend to be bright.  For heavily mixed studio recordings as most tend to be b&w may offer a too bright reveal.  So you need two sets of main speakers to coexist. 

B&W D3 can be bright if you have poor electronics or electronics with a specific voice. They can really shine with proper matching of components. (i.e. avoid putting silver or silver-plated cables in a B&W system).

I have the 802D3’s which are revealing, but in the most glorious way.  They display so much complex harmonic information and tonal shadings that are simply not conveyed by most speakers.  My Krell delivers wonderful Class A Sonics and does so with tremendous dynamics and tonal accuracy through my MIT REV Cables.  Spooky holographic soundstaging with lifelike scale and density.  Room placement takes time...every little adjustment can make huge differences in your results.

MIT rev spkr cables, very very pricey.  Why do you like them?

Dave__b love your comments. Love to see update of your system.  2015 details of your system no doubt have changed abit.
