I have listened to the 805d2's but not the d3s. I really like the D2's but they yearn for a subwoofer. You can do a lot with a Rel T9 or larger. I've heard these together and it all worked beautifully. I'm sure know this but the rest of your components also obviously matter a lot, too. I think the 805's pair nicely with a Parasound Amp. You can go with their integrated and get great price/performance.
b&w 805d2, d3, pm1, and others
hi, there,
i am thinking of getting a new bookshelf speaker. there are couple speakers in my mind
b&w 805d2, 805d3
b&w pm1, cm6 s2
pmc twenty.22
psb synchrony one b
focal aria 906
kef ls50
those speakers are not in the same price range. it is used for classical music (large orchestra works). i am looking for a pair with possible best performance/price ratio. getting a speaker like cm6 s2 would allow me to stay comfortably within my budget. as i am new to audiophile, i am not sure should i go for little bit more high-end, or just stay in entry level. i wonder if extra budget (805d2, d3) actually makes the difference, i would go them. thank a bunch.
