hi levi,
hi! honestly, i was already bent on getting Wharfedale Diamond 8.3 for my two-way front speakers until i saw your comments. just this morning i passed by park square and i was able to very quickly do a side-by-side audition for the 601 S3 and the Diamond 8.1 and... boy, was i impressed by B&W. suerte ako dahil they were using exactly the same AVR that i have. although d ako na-disappoint sa Wharfs, nagulat ako sa kakayanan ng 601 - sobrang lambot ng lows at napakalinaw ng mid at highs compared to the Wharfs! naisip ko tuloy pag-ipunan ko na lang yung B&W.
here's my question: do you think that the P5k extra that one will pay for the 601 vs. the dm303 is worth it? what about the 600 S3, mas mahal lang ito ng mga 2K or less sa DM303 pero naka-kevlar. i saw in bwspeakers.com that its designed for rears pero puede din daw siyang fronts. woofer lang ba ang superiority ng 600 line as 303? considering na pati LCR-60 or 600 daw ang match for the 600s, worth it kaya pag-ipunan?
thanks!
