Opportunity

I didn't mention that I was offered these B&W speakers by a friend who owns an AV business that does everything from theaters to home automation. One of his deals fell through and he has these sitting in his warehouse. I can only choose from the brands that he deals with.. He also can get me Focal at dealer cost, but I'd have to order the model I want. I was thinking of ordering the 948s if I don't take the B&W, but I'd like to try and hear them. Once I order them, I own them. 

Upgrade to MAGICO A3s ASAP big upgrade.

I'm sure the Magico A3 would be great, 
12K that's pricey. I'm sure a big upgrade.

I briefly owned the 702s2. Very detailed, sparkly, exciting, but atleast with my equipment upper mids were way too forward and I couldn’t turn the volume up because it would be detail overload. Like a rich dessert you can only take a couple of bites of ...if they were a couple notches closer to neutral I would’ve really liked them 

Congrats on owning a superb integrated amp.  I bought one for my son-in-law before it was discontinued by Yamaha.

As for the B&Ws, over the years I've owned a few of their speakers and have been satisfied with the results, but as a few people have posted, they sometimes do have a little too much at the top end, and can fatigue.  The good thing is that your amp is not at all harsh sounding.

Before I'd select any speakers, I'd first listen to them.  This equipment depreciates so quickly, for your "investment" to pay off, they must sound good to your ears.

Happy listening!
