Answer this: why do more recording studios have B&Ws as their monitors
than
any other speaker made?


Bwahhahahahahaha! That was B&W's bit for years. Of course they GAVE out
tons of their old mini monitors and STILL more Yamaha monitors were in
studios. B&W is renowned as a bright speaker. They're good, but not
wonderful for sustained listening. Studio monitors make bad home
speakers and you don't even know why! Like I said, you totally buy into
ads while I audition speakers carefully...here is what I've owned....

B&W CDM Series (Bright, but otherwise good)
Carver Silver Ribbons (Amazing)
Heybrook H Series (Forgiving)
Revel Gem (No compromise for 4K)
Revel Q series (Good all around speaker)
Snell JII, JIII and JIV (Very forgiving on all material)
Canton Quinto 540 (Too bright, stunning bass speed)
Royd Coniston R (The least colored speaker ever)

And several more, and while the B&W's were good, they were far from the
best. B&W 801's are still a landmark speaker, but you don't own those,
now do you? Get back to me when you're done reading old issues of
Stereo Review. The comment about B&W studio monitors being some sort of
reason why they are good home speakers pretty much says it all. Maybe
you should use Rolland speakers at home as well???

And now...because you've made such a dope of yourself....I present you
with...BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!
