    B&W speakers aesthetics not good at all!

    The only Bowers speakers I have admired based on looks alone; True, the s1 68xxx looked odd. Those grey rubber sorrounds of old were no good either

    Advice Replacing Speakers

    I suggest you go out there and listen for yourself. Seriously, I have learnt to do so through experience myself. Most of the highly regarded speakers/amps usually don't impress me (don't sound good to my ears). I often purchase alternative equipment (outside my shortlist), instead - and...

    Pioneer cs 949 speakers

    If you have the space and stomach for the looks, and they are dirty cheap, go ahead. However, I believe you can do better, even if your budget is 1.5k.

    B&W AWS610

    a Y splitter is aviable option if the avr/amp as one sub out. That way, both L and R inputs  on the sub can be fed.

    B&W AWS610

    I am beginning to question the class D amps used in subwoofers. My KEF PSW 3500 and an Energy sub I once owned suffered from hum. But my B&W asw 300 and other subs with visible heat sinks never exhitibit signs of hum in the same environment/ setup -  even if connected the same way. It would...

    which is more important, pre or amp?

    The power amp. My findings indicate that the difference is component changes is more apparent from the speakers, backwards to the source.

    The old stereo VS. multi channel debate

    This reminds me of car audio. In the driver's seat (of a sedan) , how many speakers can one hear properly (to enjoy the music)? I thiunk this is similar to sorround music in the home, where one falls into an illusion of hearing all the (multiple) speakers simultaneously.

    The idiot thread

    I still miss the Whaferdale 10.6 floorstanders - which I sold. My worst purchase were Sony ss-mf650 towers/sorround package. My first venture into separates - glad I got rid of them.

    Fair Price For Acoustic Research AR18

    Perhaps yes, or not. Refer to post # 3 See this internet picture; Looks like 'upside down' screewing is not feature unique to the speakers under discussion here, afterall :shh: That shot looks like the professional type, probably when the speakers were new. Just my opinion.
