B&W 805 versus Dynaudio 52SE

I haven't heard of the Dynaudio but the B&W S805 is very good speakers. They might be slightly an overkill for the rest of your components I would presume but as Drrdiamond has pointed out, you can upgrade your other stuff later on. The S805 is definitely a keeper.

Here's my humble opinion. I have the gorgeous s 805s in an HT system with N 805 surrounds and htm 1 for center. I started this system with a B&K avr 202 receiver and they were fabulous. I, as suggested above, have since upgraded all of my equipment with great rewards in sound quality. Using a new rotel 5 channel amp at 150 watts with meridian processor/preamp. Believe me, the signatures are class and quality that you won't regret. My two pennies.

No doubt the 805 are much better and much more musical and of course they cost much more. Just be sure not to partner them with bright equipment since they are very revealing.

B&W's as one person here wrote are Revealing, I do not think that is an accurate way to describe them. B&W Speaker color the sound, they add high frequencies. Dynaudio are known for having the best tweeter you can buy.

If you like a bight speaker go with B&W if you want real accurate sound I would suggest Dynaudio.

You are comparing a $900 speaker to to a $3,000 Why do you choose these models to compare? If you doesn't hear that big of a difference I would think it would be obvious save the $2100.

sigs might be a little bright, but are definately accurate. Both are great speakers.
