I have more experience with different B&Ws, but have heard 6311s at THJs and a pair of Usher bookies at Dans. Both on decent power. Very nice speakers, but smooth and refined wouldnt be words i would use to describe them.
-
I've never cared for the larger B&Ws. The smaller ones add a little color to the music that I do enjoy, however.
-
^^^^^^
I hope they're signed by Mr. Polk and the entire design team too. Then maybe...Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

What a deal! A pair of "Sherwin Vegas" speakers, a Polk subwoofer, and a Sony Dolby Pro Logic receiver. All for $600.

What a noob. Right speaker is corner loaded as well as next to an immediate reflection point ruining imaging.

Every time I'm in the market for high dollar speakers, the first place I turn to is Craigslist. https://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/ele/d/rare-pair-near-mint/6415276007.html
Craigs list ad. ...????..
Maybe that's why I couldn't sell some of my collection either .

I was referring to the LSi9's that were a couple posts above the one I put ^^^^ in .
Not the Monitor 12's.
The owner wanted quite a bit for them. They might still be for sale too.Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

I've never heard the Nautilus, but, there were a couple of shops here in Louisville (when we had stereo shops) that carried B&W along with some nice electronics and I can honestly say I've never heard a pair of B&W's that I thought were pleasant to listen to. No offense to anyone that owns them, to each their own. I immediately notice the lushness of the Ushers on first listen, something I never remotely experienced with B&W.
-
Me neither, never heard a pair of B&W's that set my world on fire. I thought the CDMNT series was ok, liked the 800's, but never a chance to hear the diamond tweets in the newer models.
There's a tone missing, a heft or weight to the sound. Just can't get past that, for me anyway.HT SYSTEM-

I'm betting they were further out in the room. Those most of times are set up properly by the manufacturer or their representative. It is all part of the cost for those from Wilson. I must also mention that if they were in that corner those have an XO that can be dialed in like no other speaker I know of. -
Could be Skip, as we all know.....electronics plays a huge role in what a speaker will sound like. Some are too easy to cast aside a speaker without looking at the electronics.
I've heard the beemers on a variety of electronics, still hasn't floated my boat yet. Maybe someday I'll hear a good combination.HT SYSTEM-

Ad says new, hmnn.https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/ele/d/brand-new-carver-40-power/6411513192.html

It was new at one time... -
I like the photoshopped (Ok, MS Paint'd) serial number. Nice.
-
Wth!?! That needs flagged...
-
Many obscure the serial number completely.

I wanted to post these here, because I think they are absolutely beautiful stands with marble bases. The top and bottom plates are welded on, so you'd have to drill holes in the top to mass load them. Have no idea how you would spike the bottoms for carpet.
