Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Agreed! I don't know what all of the B&W hatred is either...

...and I think most of it is rather misplaced. Instead, perhaps some of these malcontents should be harping upon the less-than-acceptable components located upstream from a pair of Nautili.(?)

I still insist that: "The N803's (or other Naut's) will tell you whatever you give them to reproduce." ie: DON"T blame the speakers. One may think he has the latest & greatest flavor-of-the-month-Stereopile-approved-whatever, but with transducers as good as the Naut's, one may be forced to re-evaluate. Along with room placement as you said, well, it's the same ol' mistakes being made it seems to me.

Do you have any stands or spikes you're using with your N804's yet, ts? If not, or if you want to try an improvement, I highly recommend the Sound Anchors specifically for N804's. They're utilitarian looking and heavy, but on the N803's they made a positive difference that was easy to hear.

The N803's didn't IMO need the 2 1/2" height increase of the SA's, but the tilt and decoupling was a tremendous benefit. Your N804's though could probably use the 4 1/2" rise because of their lower height. Check 'em out!

(Disclaimer!: I'm not affilliated with SA in any way. But I know something good when I see (hear?) it.)
