    805s for $350 a pair - I'll take all I can get

    Pretty blatant rip off:



    Lets all take a trip down memory lane. It is 1985. I imagine buying a pair of these is like buying a Pontiac Fiero (remember these?) and expecting it to perform like a Ferrari 328.

    Anyone near Wheaton, IL? You can get a 10 at-home trial. Shipping it back to Wheaton, IL is $50, but if you live there, might as well just drive on other, drive back, and post your review on them.

      I don't know about the speakers , but I'd take the Fiero. Just wasn't all that impressed with the 308/328/348 series of Ferrari.

        The 308/28/48 started life in the 70's, a low point for the auto industry. But you get my point...

            Well, they say slow growth, slow growth, you will get there. I keep telling myself that about the Guide. But the 350 member plateau is quite nice. Thanks to you newbies for making that possible!

            I look at each new member as making us that much stronger. It's also good to see a few of...

            DIY M&K 350
            by hifiking
            I think the M&K 350 sub look great with two 12". I want to build a sub for home cinema. I plan on using a Nad 216 in bridged mode, so the element must be 8 ohm. A Nad T753v2 will do the crossovers etc. So ow could I build a M&K like sub that will be suited for HT? Or is there other options...

            CAM 350 vs CA 2200
            by audiophied
            I was wondering if CAM 350 would match up well with classe's new delta line (CP 500 and CDP 102) or if it would be better to go with a CA2200 since that amp was made to match up best with the CP 500...

            Current speakers are N802 but 802D or Wilson Sophias (which I haven't heard yet) are...

            Amps to match Classe CAM-350?
            by dmccombs
            I just purchased Classe CAM-350 Monoblocks for my B&W 802Ds (Fronts) and my Center channel.

            I would like to get Classe amps with a similar sound signature for my Rear speakers, which are B&W 804S (50-200 wpc).

            What would you recommend?

            Thanks,...
