Greetings from a newbie:
I purchased (new) in 1982 my B & W 801F's; at least that what their original shipping boxes (which I still have) state. On rear of the speakers however, the nameplate states 801 Series 80 (no F). Same speaker? Borrowed shipping boxes?
After 20+ yrs. of happy listening but with under-powered equipement, I upgraded electronics to a MF Trivista 300 Integrated, added new interconnects and speaker cable (Audience Au24, Purist Audio) and can hear more and better of the music I thought I knew. Now I am thinking maybe Northcreek X-overs but I need input before I throw $2K+. I understand they are seperate boxes; do I have to do any wiring? (no talent in that realm). Is there another option for improving the music? Opinions, please.
