Thanks for your response. I've heard both and according to the specs, there is only a 4hz difference in the bottom end. I'd like to "future proof' the purchase a little, as we may move to a larger house in the future. I may go with the BE718 to save money, although the stands are a little pricey. Any other suggestions for monitors/stands or smaller floorstanders in that range?
B&W 804s vs Usher Dance Mini-One
Hello Forum,
I currently own a like new pair of B&W 804s speakers. I am considering selling these speakers (approx 3k) and purchasing the Usher Dancer Mini-One or BE718. I think I can get the Ushers (used on Audiogon) plus an integrated amp (used around $1500) with HT bypass. I know I'll have to add some cash to get both. I've heard the Ushers and really enjoyed the sound, but I don't want to have any regrets on selling the B&W. The speakers would live in a small (11x12) room with only about 5ft. from the listening chair.
Anybody have opinions. For the Integrated amp, I'm considering Vincent, Creek, Bel Canto.
I am astounded at the knowledge on this forum and would really appreciate any feedback.
