Consider the new B&W 808's 6db more headroom than the 801. This must be the perfect studio speaker. Or take a look at the Tannoy Westminsters, this is a serious speaker, weighing in at 180lb's each, the kind of speakers that send the japs running for thier checkbooks (anyone know where they are demoed in the NYC area?). Or the KEF 105.2 , I have 104Ab's so I am really KEF biased. How many of you guys out their are high-end audiophiles i.e. systems costing >$4000 Anyone own a set of Whams? How about a nakamichi cd cutter $80000! someones buying this stuff, lets hear about esoterica like goldman tables, koutsu cartriges etc...
