Quad 11L or B&W 601 S3?


I am considering to buy the above mentioned Quad or B&W bookshelf speaker, would anyone please recommend which one I should choose in term of quality? ( I don't care much about the price)
I like clasical & Pop, but sometime listen blue music.

Thanks very much for your help.

Quad 11L, I sold the 22ls and regret that very much, as I have not found a better speaker for all types of music yet.

I would go will the Quads. I bought the 12L's I had a pair of Paradigm Studio 40's and a audio buddy of mine had some B&W 805's and we both agreed that the Quad's are much better overall. He ended up going with the Vandersteen 2C sig's. The high end of the Quad is not harsh or bright at all. I think that I have come to the conclusion that low to mid end speakers with metal dome tweeters are not good. Even the Vandersteen's were a little bright before they broke-in. With the Paradigm's I would only listen for about an hour before I couldn't stand the brightness of high's any more. I find myself listening for 4 or more hours at a time when time permits.
Hi,

I also am considering the 12L´s.

I only have 14" from the back of the speaker to the rear wall and will be listening about 6´ away.

Any comments if this would work?

Gracias y Saludos!
