| B & W fans I am a B&W buff all the way. i live in a remote town and had not even seen B&W 8 series until u bought a pair without even looking at them. they never cease to impress. I am a big fan of the 60 series speakers. they're pretty damn good and... | |
| ASUS Xonar STX - Distortion after a long hard road of elimination and reading and blowing up one 802d speaker i discovered it was windows media player. something to do with the codecs changed to VLC and its all good.I haven't been able to fix the problem with WMP either | |
| B&W 802d - Power, Help/ Opinion please Thanks for the opinions, i have considered Classe but its availability in Australia as extremely limited, i think i would also balk at the price of a pair of Classe pwr amps. By all means if you know where i can find some cheap let me know. I had ... | |
| Bookshelf speaker ideas.... Energy veritas bookies. had a listen recently run by a Cambridge amp. surprisingly good bass for a tiny driver. very soft and smooth. would be better than 602's. good price new in USA around 400 a speaker. i almost bought myself a pair. | |
| How long untill I can really Flog them Hard Yeh your right. My issue is given my age (25) i dont get taken seriously by a sales person which pisses me off. Its their loss when i walk into a shop with 12k looking to spend and they turn up their nose. Im not going to wave it around to get att... | |
| Bookshelf speaker ideas.... second hand B&W 602 S3's i have a pair and it opened my eyes to quality sound even with a crappy amp. they're pretty impressive. | |
| How long untill I can really Flog them Hard appreciate the opinions Im getting from people here. I previously tried to steer clear of the forums here as i didn't want my opinion before purchasing to be clouded by someone else who sounded very convincing.and to be very honest i live in a sma... | |
| How long untill I can really Flog them Hard Im no expert by any stretch but the only was i can size this up is to say that it seems the bass slightly overpowers the mid and treb until there is more volume. i have a hard surfaced room so i dont think its absorption. i dont have bass droning ... | |
| How long untill I can really Flog them Hard i find the bass quite adequate. especially compared to my Bose 901s i had previously. i find its the mid and treble that needs the wattage to liven up. | |
| How long untill I can really Flog them Hard The speaker was blown when the missus unplugged all the RCA's and then replugged from the source direct to the pwr amp on one channel. I may have over stated how much a "flog them" as for too old, I'm 25 yrs old. I don't crank them to a commercial... | |
| life of speakers? too many variables. in theory they should last forever. typically people managed to physically destroy them ( kids fingers spilt drinks, moving house etc.) before you wear them out. age probably hurts them more then use itself. stiffening adhesive... | |
| Dismantle B&W 802D I personally believe that Screened Power Cables from a Power Conditioner would make a difference. Screened cables directly from a mains outlet on the other hand would be useless. High Quality RCA's i believe too would make a difference but after a... | |
| Dismantle B&W 802D so now i have pulled out all of the drivers from the speaker enclosure (802d). it would appear that the B&W speakers are just speakers like all others. all the curves and polish daunted me to go ahead but i did. it was easy. considering what i... | |
| Dismantle B&W 802D i managed to poke around in there and find out how to remove the tweeter and mid. the all come out the front. the mid is removed by undoing the big bolt thing at the back and then can be pulled clear of the enclosure and disconnected. the tweeter ... |
