B&W vs Thiel vs Dunlavy 6K LIST


Just curious about these speaker brands in general and how they sound compared to each other. I own Thiel but have not listened to B&W or Dunlavy. Thanks.

Hi Djbaudio,

This is my question also. As you alone, thus far, have listened to all 3, I have listened to B&W's and Thiel's, you are the resident expert. :-)

You say that the B&W's have excellent midrange and high-end, but seem to me to be a bit bloated on the bottom. Are their mids and highs on par with the Dunlavy's so that only the bass is a real issue?

Thanks,

Lou
Thanks, I have never heard a Dunlavy speaker, yet am attempting to decide wether to buy them, or forget about them. The more I hear, the more it sounds like I may end up with a pair.
Hi S2K Dude,

While I certainly hate to buy based upon others opinions, I have found that personal experiance can mislead also. I have heard B&Ws at one dealer, and I was completely unimpressed with them. I later heard them at a second dealers and was amazed, they were nothing like I heard before... I'm not sure you know anything till you live with them in your system for a time...
Hi Lpim,

I hear you, that is a MAJOR problem. I have heard B&W's that I know I like, but due to their setup they were COMPLETELY unimpressive. Digital speaker correction? Is that where you re-record CD's to make the B&W's time coherent?

Thanks,

Lou
