Quite simply, these have outperformed everything else I have ever owned, but I am making some temporary WAF concessions with the hope that down the line I can step it up to something really special (hint: it may be impossible to get your sig other into a legitimate AV showroom, but there are various housewalks/kitchen walks where she might just see some B&W 803's and say, "hey those are nice." some day, some day.

    Great price, stick to your guns, give it a little time.

    I have a set of these and love em. Small footprint of a M5 with the sound of an M10. Someone will be very happy at this price.

    I have a pair of 11Ts I got a year ago. Great speakers, natural sound and very good bass for the footprint.

    Post like these are one reason I haven't gotten married yet. The 11Ts are my "small speakers." :)

    Very tempting to revisit these speakers. But I'd have no use for them other than to swap them in and out occassionally. Give your sale some time as things are slower in the summer.

    Too much? I saw a recent post saying that $200 seemed like a good price in Portland. Any interest at $150? Any lower and I would have to test the CL waters.

    As good as those look, $150 is a great price. I just bought a pair a few months ago for $100 that sound great but cosmetically are pretty rough. I'm going to re-veneer them when I get time and they'll come in from the garage.
