Nautilus owners upgrade to what?

Hello all, just wondering anyone who has owned B&W Nautilus and sold them for something else that they liked better. I see people here selling their B&W so there must be something they are trading upt to. Every dealer who sells B&W invariably points me to B&W. These dealers also sell: Thiel, ProAc, Monitor Audio, Paradigm, NHT, Wharfdale, DynAudio.
As one B&W dealer told me, once people hear B&W that's what they want to buy. He was saying if B&W started selling at Circuit City, he'd be out of business.

If you've got upwards of $5k to spend I'd highly recommend finding a Silverline dealer(not always easy) and trying the Sonatina II or Sonata II. Incredible speakers that will work well with a variety of electronics. I also thought the Thiel CS1.6 was outstanding, but, like B&W, will require some careful system matching to make them really shine. Definitely go hear the Silverlines though. Best of luck.

I'm upgrading my Nautilus 805's and Nautilus HTM-1 to JM Labs Electra 936's and Electra 901CC. However if i could afford more I would go to JM Labs Utopia speakers.
