A friend just invested on one of Ed Frias top of the line speakers a few days ago and I invited him over the weekend to test, by the way speakers came burned-in by Ed since it took awhile for the order to be finished, those speakers are big so we had it loaded in back of a rented U-Haul pick-up. Hook it up through my gear so we could come around and see what's lacking with both. First CD was just a sample to keep things going we listen to "Kylie Minogues' Can't get you out of my head" cd and would you believe that the low end on that song came to life on the t-60 a little tad better than my N803's, Is this freaking possible? so I kept switching cables to see if there was more that I could notice but the 803 were a little more prominent in the mids not too far off from the t-60, on certain cds they were about the same but the low end on the T-60's were becoming more prominent than the 803's, I was trully marveled by the performance on the T-60's but I would still keep my 803 since they look better in the aesthetics department so nice to look at while the T-60's looked like a fridge and heavy. :evil: He'll be hooking the T-60's with some ATI pre and amp so maybe he will come back on the next long weekend and match it with my pre and amp. Will keep you posted :M

I have seen a lot of glowing reviews for the older N803 speakers but not much on the newer 803S's, at least not yet. I recently purchased the 803S's but I never got the opportunity to hear the N803's. Has anyone compared the two? What did you think? Are the "improvements" really better?... -

I'm upgrading my HT system, selling CDM9NT/CDMCNT combo for N803/HTM1 combo. Have existing side surrounds but will eventually upgrade to DS7's (DS8 too big). However, I will also be using this system for critical 2 channel music, and I don't think my Pioneer vsx49tx HT rcvr is going to get the best...16 March 2008, 21:28 Sunday
