Hello all,

Have a big dillema here.
Have the opprotunity to get my hands on the new B+W 703's. Already have the stores floor model B+W CDM-9NT's in my livingroom and waiting for my pair to arrive at the store. I've had the 9NT's for about a month. Got them to replace a pair of Klipsch RF-3's.
The RF-3's were driving me up the wall. After about 45 mins of listening time it was like nails on a chalkboard to me. I know alot of you guys like these speakers, I must say I thouroghly enjoyed turning the volume up on them. And they are awesome for home theatre.
After I got the CDM-9NT's unheard or auditioned from the store. Hooked them up and fell in love. strereo sound had never sounded so good!!! Listenened to the entire cd collection over the following couple of days and broke them in gently. Loved the range, or.... the mid range and how the highs were not so aggressive on this speaker versus the RF-3's. Slightly, (9NT's) well... more tinny, but only occasionally on certain recordings do I notice it.

Anyway my point in writing this is... I was able to get the 9NT's for 2400. I have the opprotunity to trade in my pair of RF-3's and the 9NT's for the new B+W 703's. Even trade. Do ya do it???
I was going to give a friend an awesome deal and sell him my RF-3's for $475.
OH yeah, almost forgot to mention that you will not be able to audition these speakers. you gotta buy them now. Based on what professional reviews and info is available on the B+W site (because there doesnt appear to be any other info anywhere on them). I guess I could drive a few hours and find a store that has them..... probably will.

Another dillema I am having is that I kinda am a home theatre person as much as 2 ch stereo. These would have to serve as mains in that system as well.
Also.. I will be hooking these up to a Denon 3803. I know... you guys all have tubed amps, and seperates. Should I be ashamed to hook these speakers up to this unit??? I dont know... I just know, I just upgraded to this unit 9 months ago and it really seems to serve it's purpose well. It will be about 12 to 18 months before I can even consider upgrading that unit or switching to seperates. Right now B+K is kinda on my mind and in my budget for that future day.

Tell me what you think, all opinions welcome. and any input on the 703's is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Stewrt
