802Ds.

Was that a treat? If so, you are easily amused.


Max, if you own the 11, 500 dollar pair of 802Ds (and have them in
every room in the house!) and also own the 7-10K in electronics
required to make them sound good, I owe you an apology. They are VERY
fine speakers and I heard a pair with Krell amps and CJ front end
recently.
Still, I find it hard to believe that you own these so perhaps you'll
post a pic of your setup...or I'll do it for you if you send. I'm very
interested in such exotics, which I'm unable to own until Thom's older.

The 802s, acquired last year, are in the family room, on either side of the
fireplace. My electronics are older and need upgrading, but aren't bad.
Since I've acknowledged that and see no reason to begin another pointless
debate, we'll leave it at that, rather than elaborate on my electronics.

The other B&Ws aren't quite so "exotic". I have 701s in the living room and
a pair of DM601 S3s in the bedroom, which are fine for the type of listening
we do there. I also have a B&W sub in with the 802s, but can't recall the
model offhand. It is a 12" unit, chosen for musicality, not movie rumble.

What do you think of McIntosh gear?
