How do they sound? There are many reviews online, but most accurate review I found is here is here. In short, what you get is about 80% of performance for 1/3 of price of 805n. Of cos they can't replace 805's as my main speakers but they do offer a lot at this price point. They are better sounding than B&W 685 speakers for sure and they can be very enjoyable to listen if you don't over force them at high levels with too demanding music tracks. Size of speaker just cannot cope with that. But simple jazz or even rock music in a smaller listening area is where they shine with great imaging and control. Only minus would be their low sensitivity at around 84 dB per W/m. But, if you have proper amp with enough power to drive them this shouldn't be a problem.
Annoyingly I lost one of the screws from speaker terminal and already ordered new one from official B&W shop for about S$20.
Even my cat approves them. :)
