B&W
« on: 30 Jul 2013, 02:14 am »
Thought I would give this site a try. Will probably spend most my time in the Vintage Circle as that is what makes up the bulk of my collection, which is not as high end as some. Recently added a set of B&W 704 to the stable. Waited nearly an hour and got them for a couple Jacksons. Came with the spikes. In the process of claiming space and moving things around so I have yet to audition beyond checking functionality. Thet are in excellent condition.

Jealous. Don't know if a 10yo speaker is exactly 'vintage', but welcome to AC all the same.

I'd guess 10-11 years give or take.  The B&W P6s I have in the secondary basement system must be about 20 years old.

Yeah, tough call, but as they will be driven by vintage power, thought they looked best here. The ball busting choice will either be a Sansui 9090DB, Sansui G9000DB, Marantz 2325 or possibly Pioneer SX1250, and maybe an Onkyo TX-8500. I can survive only a couple moves per week.

Keep swapping out those receivers. Some people go to gyms and PAY for an upper body workout like that!
