B&W 801D playing classic rock

[MarshMellowChronic]

finaly some high end speakers put to good use! :)

hate coming across videos knowing its going to be the same old boring classical shit.

[BRUCEFOREVER1]

First, sorry for my poor english. Can i tell you what kind of cd player, amplifier and cables using?. That for undestand how that very good sound is 'made' of 801, or coming also by the good electronics?. Thank you..

[PumpkinPriest]

Fantastic Sound!

[BRUCEFOREVER1]

Your audio system is greath and probabably the 801 are the best speakers in the world. I love listening on you tube and in the most importants show room in my and others city (Florence), the hi-end systems. I can tell you that the reproduction is perfectly, but.. becouse yes, there is an 'but'. The most important problem of all digital systems: theyrs have'nt the SOUL. And the music shoulder given and to be like in reality, SOUL AND HEART. Wherewere, congratulation, wonderfull system

4 audio snobs are pissed that you used these speakers for R&R, instead of the REQUIRED Jazz/ Classical playlist.

[audiophilemetallian]

@snipe1963 we gotta filter'em :D thanks for you comment!

[iamtheman7732]

dang the bass is so deep

[23chilled]

i dread to think how good these would sound with my NAD 2200PE's monoblocked to them. Makes my ears wet just thinking about it.

[shaibanhaq]

hey what's the name of the track? it's super

[audiophilemetallian]

@shaibanhaq Hey glad you liked. It´s called One for the Road by Judas Priest :)

[VaultboyTheGenius]

Nice song

[BigRooster747]

You just got to love that 80-ies sound...... or not?

[audiophilemetallian]

@BigRooster747 well I like songs from any age but I got to say the songs in the eighties or even nineties impress me a litte bit more. OK friend?

[motorcitydeadman]

Congrats on the new amps!

[jedirambo]

Judas Priest! Thanks for playing that, on great speakers!

[doomtomb3]

What size woofer is that?

[audiophilemetallian]

@doomtomb3 15inch size!!

[estvan56]

@audiophilemetallian Just a suggestion. Get rid of that cabinet. It screws up the sound. I'm sure it sounds great as is, but you'll be surprised by the improvement.

[audiophilemetallian]

@estvan56 thank you my friend. I´ve noticed before it compromises especially the soundstage. Also the distance I´m sat from them is too short.

BTW I am moving from another house in 2 or 3 months where I will have the chance to use them on an exclusive 40sqm listening room. Then the placing wont be problem

[estvan56]

@audiophilemetallian What are the rest of the components in your system? I've never had the opportunity to audition these speakers. I'll have to make time for it. I've read nothing but great reviews about them from magazines and proud owners alike.

[audiophilemetallian]

@estvan56 Dear mate. Actually I am loading them with a single Integrated amp Krell KAV-400xi. Since I will be moving in about two months to my new house and get the new exclusive room, I am ending to buy the rest of setup to adequately drive them. The amps will arrive next week, they are the Krell EVO 600e. And so the rest while I dont move. Unfortunately the room they are still placed isnt dedicated It´s also the living room. So they wont ever play 100% when the room isnt dedicated.

[LedSlash71]

what's the song please ?

[ModernGameChangers]

Those being the 801D's you had them made like that I imagine? Interesting haha but they are still diamonds therefore I love them

[motorcitydeadman]

Cool man, I bet those really rock the house!

[artemaestro]

Awesome B&W,great system!

[mglimabh]

Great B&W!!
