@arafiq it doesn't make a big difference what the asking price is, Half the people will offer 6K and half of them will try to resell it. If he's lucky, someone will be in the market for this exact model, and happily pay 13K
I have NOVA V's and I am not happy
I have a Mark Levinson 585 and a pair of Sonus Faber Olympica Nova V's and although I admittedly have some room acoustic issues that I am working on I am not happy with the sound.
I listen to music LOUD. This Pairing thru a pair of Kimber Cable 8TC's gets bright in what I think is the 2 to 4 khz range and the sonus faber nova's seem to mute the lower end of female vocals, artist like Macy Gray or Tina Turner dont seem to have the same drive in the lower octaves. At the same time the upper end of vocals like Sheryl Crow can get too bright and cause fatigue (I am assuming this is in the 2 to 4khz range) I have tried every speaker placement you can think of, toe in, toe out. distance from front wall and I am adding acoustic treatments as fast as they can be shipped.
Here is my question, I had Mark Levinson 436 Mono Blocks in the past connected to a pair of B&W Nautilus 802's thru a pair of MIT Shotgun bi-wire speaker cables and I never noticed that system to be bright. Granted that system was in a different room in a different house. Everyone is telling me that B&W is a brighter sounding speaker by far over Sonus Faber. If I decide after all my room treatments that I am not a fan of the Sonus Faber sound where should I turn for my replacement speaker? Or is it Mark Levinson's Fault? I want Rich Lush Loud Musical sound. I like a decent sound stage, I also really love it when when you hear decay from the instruments. I don't really care if that's what is neutral or not that's what I like :)
Where did I go wrong and what can I do to fix it?
Thanks Lee

@rlross3 No one beeching about your placement is really offering you any advice as to how to remedy it. Send me a DM on A’gon and I can direct you to some DSP solutions that will get you excellent sound and you will want to keep your speakers in the exact spot you have them now. That TV in the back is a big problem though a lot of people do it that way. My buddy has a projection TV in his office (projector cost about $2000). I forgot the tech that was used but he projects the picture to the wall and the projector sits on the floor about 1 foot away from the wall. That is what I would use if I had to have a TV in the middle like that. The picture was very good, or good enough for me.

@yyzsantabarbara probably the most incoherent rambling about projectors I ever read, I will never get those brain cells back

@grisslehamn I understand some of us start from a deficit on those brain cells, so here is a link to what I am talking about. My buddy had some other model, but the projector tech is "Laser" something. There is this new thing called the internet that can help you dig deeper into this tech if you are so inclined.
