    deciding on new toys

    I have just recently sold my beloved 803D's and the Htm3S and I will probably get new 802D's with the HTM2D center but I was wondering if anyone out there has had a chance to listen to the Dali M5 and it's companion middle speaker.
    The Dali dealership is 2 1/2 hours away so comparative listening isn't going to work. I love the 802D's but was trying to keep my options open. Any thoughts?
    I listem mostly to music, DVD-audio, then 30% movies.

      I heard from a dealer in NV that swears that Dali is better than B&W. However I never heard one so I don't know.

      Then again, we are in Club B&W, so I would think that the opinions would be a little bit bias here.

          Another options besides Dali, is Revel Speaker, Either the ultima series (they have been arround quite a while) or the new Performa F52.

          However, this forum is geared more toward B&W. Try putting it on Avsforum for speaker, maybe you will get more input there.

                  There are pleanty of good speaker manufacturers ("assemblers") out there... today. Question is, where will they be tomorrow?

                  When I look back 20 years ago (when I bought my first pair of B&W speakers) "some" people were saying the same thing about B&W then as they do now. Intresting that most of those guys are no longer around and B&W still is! Take that to your "Dali" dealer, tdiciple. LOL

                      I am not saying Bias. I am saying geared toward B&W. The reason I said that is because we are under Club B&W Speaker forum.

                          There are other great speakers out there, but like Rebelman said, how long will they be there? Alot of these companies use drivers that can be purchased by any of us off the shelf and for some reason that really bugs me.
                          I remember the first time that I heard the Wilson Audio Watt Puppy, I really liked the way it sounded and still do but I kept looking at that Focal tweeter,the Scanspeak Midbass driver and the Dynaudio Woofers thinking $23k????......:huh:

                              Considering upgrade to Revel Performa series
                              by PSUfan
                              Alright, the upgrade bug is upon me and I have the money saved. I'm considering replacing my current energy veritas setup with the revel performa speakers. It would be f52's for the main's, c52's for the center, b15a for sub, and s30's for the surround.

                              My current Rotel setup is the...

                              Humour me - Tell me about Dali Suite 1.2 sub
                              by azz123
                              Hello..

                              Just stumbled across this forum having scaled many and cursed Google for leading me up many garden paths.
                              Am in the midst of purchasing a Sub and at the moment am teetering between the Dali Suite 1.2 ($900 AUD), the AAD C10i($750), and the JBL E250P ($1,000 AUD)
                              ...

                              Rotel and Dali Helicon?
                              by Horacio
                              You might have seen my other thread asking about Thiels.

                              Does anybody have any experience with Dali Helicon 400 or 800 speakers and Rotel gear? I own an RB-1080 amp, RC-1070 pre-amp, and RCD-1072 cd player.

                              Looking forward to your input.

                              Has anyone heard the Halo with Dali Helicon or Euphonia speakers ? If so I'd like to hear your thoughts.

                              Gentlemen,

                              Does anyone have any experience with Dali Helicon's (400's-300's-C200) and an Anthem AVM-20 combination using any Classe' amplification?

                              I am considering a purchase of a CA 5200 to use as a primary amp in my system.

                              The CA5200 would be replacing...
