Opportunity

I have the opportunity to purchase a pair of B&W 702s 2 speakers at dealer cost. Approximately 1/2 of retail. My current speakers are KEF R3s with the R400B sub. I have been thinking of a speaker up grade. I have not heard the B&W yet. Does anyone have any experience with these, and do you think it would be a substantial upgrade. My amp is a Yamaha AS2100. I play mostly vinyl on a VPI Prime with a VDH special cartridge. I listen to a little of everything but mostly jazz and classic rock. I wasn't really shopping, but this fell in my lap.
Any input appreciated.

not a fan of those speakers.  Sideways move at best.

If you can get the B&W at half of retail you should give them a try. If you don’t like them you can sell them. I doubt that if you did decide to sell them you would lose anything !
