B&w 803D-latest version vs Dynaudio focus 380


Looking for peoples thoughts on these 2 speakers that Ive been debating purchasing for quite some time now. Electronics I would be using is a mcintosh ma7000 and an oppo bdp 105.

I have not heard the Dynaudios but considered the 803d (not di) and in head to head demos thought there were a number of better speakers. I find the mids colored and while the bass is strong it lacks texture, the highs are real nice though. At the time I demoed the Focal 1037be, Paradigm S8, thiel 3.7, b&w 802d/803d. Martin Logan spires, magnepan 3.6r and klipsch palladium line.

... Honestly the 803ds were pretty low on the list after the demos with the 3.7 being the best of the group. I got a killer deal in a pair of Thiel 2.4s and never looked back.. Well maybe at 3.7s from time to time.
Nice! James63 -

I,too, love those 2.4 speakers.To date, they are the richest-sounding speakers I have auditioned.
Nice! Good to know. What would be your 2nd and 3rd choice out of focal, klipsch or paradigm?
