I, for one, like B&W speakers. Not all of them, mind. I have had a soft spot for the 302 for over a decade now, though I have never quite gotten around to owning a pair. The bigger B&Ws have a really good synergy with Krell boat anchor amps. The older single 15" woofer Nautilus speakers (the 801s?) a bit two ...Cerwin-Vega-esque for my taste, but in a brief audition I liked the newer ones. I'm also quite happy with my CDN-CNT center channel speaker. It's kinda funky looking, but it spits out dialog with great clarity. I'm dyslexic, and I have a much harder time with auditory processing of language than "normal" people. I watch a lot of old movies, and I appreciate how well the B&W works with low-fi source material. YMMV. I like pie.
