I am looking at getting some new HT speakers and have B&W on list among other brands. Considering I have no familiarity with B&W, I did have a couple of questions to run by current owners:
• What is the main difference between B&W 803 series, B&W 703 series, B&W CDM 9/7NT and B&W CM series? From what I am able to check on B&W’s website, it appears the 703 and CDN NT have been discontinued, but the 703 appears to be very similar to the 803. Just looking to get some more information around which one of these would be ideal for Music + HT, as I will search for a good pre-owned set prior to making the plunge on getting brand new speakers.
• Are these power hungry speakers? I currently have McIntosh amplifiers and want to better understand if these speakers need a powerful amplifier like McIntosh, or I could go down the path of getting B&K, Rotel or some other brand.
• I understand this is a B&W forum, but wanted to gauge if any opinions around Vienna Acoustics speakers compared to the B&W lineup I have outlined. Anyone who has owned Vienna Acoustice or familiar with them please share your opinion.
Cheers
