Hi all,
People say / write these speakers tend to sound too clear / harsh / attacking when you hear them for the first time (especially compared to their more expensive siblings the 805's).
I listened to them and must say, to me, they are more present than the 805's.
However, I thought that was a known 'problem' with B&W speakers. Do they sound more relaxed after about a month? Or is that just another way of saying "after a month I got used to the sound..."
Can anyone please comment on these (705) speakers?
Furthermore, the most important reason why I lean more towards the 705 than the 805's is that the guy at the store told me that, considering my music preference (U2, Queen, Sting, Police, Evanescence, Celine Dion) the 805's should't be the way to go.... (comment anyone?)
Thank you!
ps: I thought choosing new front channels would be easy...
