B&W 805 versus Dynaudio 52SE


I'm more or less committed to one of these as I have a store credit at a dealer who stocks only these two brands.
I will be using Musical Fidelity X-Ray CD player and X-150 amp.
I'd welcome opinions of the strengths of these speakers, especially if used with Musical Fidelity gear. Interesting to hear what interconnects/speaker wire you have used in such combinations too.
Also...Is the much more expensive B&W Signature 805 overkill in view of my other equipment? Or would it be a smart purchase?
Thanks.

The Signature is much better than the regular 805.

You can always upgrade your electronics later.

I totally agree with Richard. The signature 805 is leaps and bounds better the than 805. People that say it is only a finish upgrade don't know about the B&W line, because that is not true. For starters, all you to have to do is look at the binding posts. Where the N805 uses copper, the S805 uses silver.

Anyway, I've been using Musical fidelity with both the N805 and the S805. They go great together. I would suspect that even the N805 would be better than the Audience 52, although, I have not heard it with Musical Fidelity gear.
Why don't you arrange for an in home demo. Or, if the dealer won't do that, take your MF gear to the store and check out both speakers.
Our opinions are meaningless. Listen for yourself, and you tell me the strengths/weaknesses of each.
