I recently had a shootout(me, my neighbor, & another friend) between these three speakers. The Yammies and the KEF's tied for best overall, yammies better on rock, KEF better on vocals, the B&W's were good on classical but somewhat muddy. They were all being driven by SS > 100WPChannel. Very subtle changes on volume or tone easily shifted perception. The Yammies by-the-way had NS-690 tweeters instead of the original Berylliums(I ain't gonna pay $200 for no tweeter). The B&W's were frankly a dissapointment and I still love my KEF104aB's which are quite similar to the Calinda's. My son, a musician loves his NS690's!Jerry, I have a pair of Dahlquist M907's which still used the Dahlquist version of the masonite large Advent woofer in 1987. They have Vifa Mids and Tweeters and sound extremely open. I haven't done a side by side with the KEFs or NS1000's yet but I think they're gonna do pretty well. I've compared them against a pair of original Advents with new caps and like the M907's better.
