I listened to a pair of 703's and 804's at the dealer. Wanted to like the 804's better as I think they really look good. To my surprise the 703's sounded more airy and less boxy, boomy. I have seen these comments elsewhere on the web. I will be listening to TV and DVD's in addition to CD's. I will... -
First the good news...
I bought my N804 new 8 years ago. Got a good deal on the last brand new pair at the dealer right when 804S was launched.
Looks like the 2nd value of the speakers are shockingly high--I can expect to get 80% of what I paid for them 8 years ago!... -
My current setup is N804s for main, HTM2 for CTR, 705s for rear, B&W700 sub to complete my 5.1 setup.

Replace 705s with N804s (~$3000)

Current setup is AVR300 (110w) going into a pair of N804. Budget is about 2-3k. Would I get better bass with a velyo DD10 (1000w I think, which seems overkill), or by getting a more power amp. If going down the poweramp route, how much power can the N804s really handle--i know it says 200w on the manual....
