got these little things today for 75.00 in vvgood condition. wondering if i should use them on my marantz 2230 in spare room. marantz is hooked to klipsch klf10's now. im debating weather to hook up B-W's instead. marantz doesnt need big klipsch speakers. seems like a waist of good speaker. ive become a speaker junky. but i couldnt pass it up for 75 bucks. any thoughts. the marantz is a 1972 so im pleased to own it.

    If you want to know my thoughts on it, I'd say stop spending 75 bucks here, 100 bucks there, and buy a good set of speakers. Other than that, switch them out and find out for yourself if you like them or not. Our opinions mean little, it's your ears that matter.

    i will know tomorrow. if it does sound good i will use them. ive never heard b-w speakers. they kinda look like my paradigms though. the craftmanship looks very good. the woofers look nice too

    as far as saving money. i needed another set for barn. and i found these at a great price in vgood condition. yes i will agree i have purchased a few lately. but when you come across a set of speakers that are worth 3 times the value. i tend to buy them....i purchased my sda2b speakers for cheap money. it was a gamble i took. im glad i did..ive spent very little money on all my gear....i would of spent more on 1 set of speakers....when all i had was paradigms
