| Bowers and Wilkins 800 Series Discontinued? I heard September will be the release for the new 800 series. | |
| Favorite cable brand. I prefer used cables. List price for some of these cables is ridiculous. Cables are high margin items for sales folks. I’d rather save money and buy a lightly used pair second hand.I use Audioquest rocket series in my system. I like the way my... | |
| Focal kanta 2 vs Sonus faber olympica 2..which to buy? I have a pair of Kanta no 2 and a pair of SF Olympica III. I can agree with many of the previous comments.
