BTW before anyone asks, this price is for each speaker. The pair would cost 2x $1950.

These, unquestionably. Pretty much the only difference between this model and the newest one is a slightly more elongated tweeter housing. FWIW, I listened to the Focal at AXPONA a few weeks ago and wasn't very impressed with it--certainly a nice speaker, but not much of a wow factor from a musical standpoint. (Of course, the room acoustics play a huge role here.) But given the choice, I'd go with the Brits over the French. Smilie

I'm new to the market with BW. Are you saying the series 2 is not much different than the series 3? Should I jump on these? Been waiting for a deal on the S3s.

If you prefer the sound of B&W this is a pretty good price for the 7 series which IMO is their starting point.

Quote from Mike C :
Can you take off that tweeter thing that is on top of the speaker? Makes it hard to use the speaker as a shelf for stuff like controllers, remotes, etc. with that big bump on top of the speaker.

the R11 is a closer match performance wise. the KEF are more neutral. I did a demo of the B&W not long ago and found them just a hair bright.

Other good options in this price range would be Revel, Focal or Monitor Audio.

Lol! Also, why is the speaker so tall? And why so many drivers?
