About a year ago I had some time to kill while waiting for my daughters to arrive at Tampa International so I wandered over to Audio Visions South which is about 2-3 miles se of the airport. It turned out to be an exceptional stop. They carry both Magnapan and B&W and I wanted to hear both the 20.7s and some 3.7is. Wonderful, knowledgeable staff. I listened to the Maggies, thanked them and was headed for the door. The sales guy, and I wish I could remember his name because he really was helpful, stopped me and asked if I had a little bit of time. I said sure and he demonstrated the new 802 D3s. When I got done I commented that a guy would have a tough time deciding between them and the 20.7s. His comment was that he would go with the D3s and in thinking about it I had to agree. Those are some special speakers. I've never heard a stage that deep. Might be worth a trip there if it's not too far from where you are.
