B&W is a renown name with a lot of mindshare, but that doesn't mean you should necessarily believe the hype. Go listen to a pair yourself and compare them with other models from other manufacturers. I found B&W to fall short against the Monitor Audio and Dynaudio speakers I compared them to.

Sorry bro to be blunt most of the people here have gotten over the hype of B&W and most other hyped common brands. We focus on speakers that measure accurately with the least amount of cost. You can get more accurate sound reproduction and cabinet finishes from probably Salk and Ascend and other internet direct brands often mentioned here. So unless you like the colored sound character of B&W and those mass produced brands made in China and willing to pay the extra while having inferior drivers + cabinet, do some research here and read what's better for less.

Apparently you have not listened to all series of Klipsch speakers. I have listened to Dynaudio speakers that were much more piercing than some Klipsch models.

Which is why I sold all my Dynaudios more than a decade ago... same overhyped brand of old...
