Hello friends,

Well, now that my unexpected amp problem is being fixed by PS Audio for free(!), I'm returning my attention to upgrading my B&W's to a speaker better suited to the 25'x30'x30'h room they reside in and would appreciate some opinions.

Here's what I've heard so far:
1) Sonus Faber Cremona M; nice speaker, sounds too much like my B&W's with the same dynamic limitations for the room

2) Goldenear Triton Two's; I was hoping to hear the Ones, but this is what the dealer had and honestly, I was completely underwhelmed. REALLY warm sound, unfocused, boomy, throws the mids together in a blender. After reading reviews, this was by far the most disappointing speaker I heard.

3) Revel Studio 2's; Lively, fun speaker...and way out of my price range!

Here's what I'm considering:
1) Wilson Watt/Puppy 7's; it's been a awhile since I heard a pair and yet they remain my benchmark to this day. Literally the only speaker I've ever heard that made my jaw drop. I thought perhaps time had romanticized how good they were until we went to my friend's and heard his Wilson Sasha's right after hearing everything else and the magic was readily apparent.

2) JBL 1400 Array; I've not heard these, but those that have swear by them. A dealer friend has them as his own reference, even though he doesn't sell JBL, and swears they run circles around the Wilsons. The downside is the appearance. I don't have a dedicated music room and when I showed the wife a picture and said, "I'm putting these in the living room," she gave me a "are you freakin' kidding?!?" look cold enough to freeze Hell. Zero WAF.

3) B&W 802D's; These seem the logical step up from my CDM7NT's, but I haven't heard them.

What's your opinion on my quandry? I'm hoping someone here has heard the JBL's. Price cap is $5k (used is obviously fine) and they need to be dynamic enough to fill that room. Von Schweikert already eliminated their VR33 saying it would be a poor match.

Thanks for your help!
