Hey-
With the colder weather setting in & more time being spent indoors, I feel a nasty case of upgraditis coming soon... A question for the N802 owners out there.. what size room do you have them in? I have a 12x15 living room that is for stereo stuff only. one side has a doorway that opens to the foyer, one end has a double doorway into a 18 x12 den. My wife has given me the green light to upgrade to N802. If I find a pair within a few hours from home i'll go for it. My only concern is that there may be too much boom for da room with the N802s. Im in negotiations with my wife to set up the stereo in the 18x12 den but im not sure if i'll win. Also, does anyone know the dimensions of the N802 boxes & crates? My current set-up is:
B&W N804 w/ Sound Anchors
Conrad-Johnson MF2500 amp - 240 solid-state wpc.
Rogue 66 pre amp w/ NOS Mullards
Musical Fidelity A3.2 CD player
32" Samsung LCD
<cables removed by admin, determined to have no real relevence to this post>
90% music 10% movies
Also, would my amp supply enough juice for the N802's? I love the sound of that amp & dont want to part with it... Im a rocker & like it LOUD! The N804s aregreat for mids & highs, but I would like some more bass. Im not a big fan of sub's and have tried using one, but it was too easy to place in the room (hearing wise).
I'll post pics this weekend so you get a better feel for the room layout im working with.
Would N803 be a more sensible upgrade? I have a feeling the answer may be yes, but I wonder home much more bass i'd gain versus the N804.
Sorry to ramble, it's a slow day at work...
