I thought i would hold on to these for a long time, but after getting the Dalis and another AVR, im going with the Dalis. These B&Ws sound great. Super mids and airy highs. Not the lowest speakers but decent bottom end. They really shine with a decent sub and are a great choice for double duty. I would rate them between 7 and 8. The grills have some holes but they look way better without them. No jumpers, but you will want to bi-wire these anyway or make your own. $600.00 plus actual ship and pp.

How bout a local deal?. With the 1nts ill offer a Polk CSi25, a JBL Balboa 10 sub and a pair of Def Tech pro monitor 80s for an additional 100.00. 700.00 for everything

I'll chime in here that these are very good speakers at a very fair price.
Owning a pair myself and offering a Polk analogy - the CDM1NTs are a combination of the LSi7s with their rich midrange and spacious soundstage and the RTiA3s (having owned both the LSi7s and RTiA3s myself) with their top end sparkle and easy to drive.
Someone should pick these up.
H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music. -
Thanks Eric. Good analogy and I'll be a little sad to see them go actually. It was a tough call, but the Dali's edged em out. Go a bit lower, mids are comperable and the highs have a tad more air. Tougher to drive though
