I didn’t get the impression that the B&W on display were significantly better than the 9020s. Actually didn’t enjoy those. Also kept the sub gain around 40% on def techs during demo. So yea YMMV.

Fugly tiny speakers and the fabric covering it tears easily. Think most folks prefer the larger 9040s or 9060s or if you really have the space 9080s.
