Monitor audio bx2 and nad d3020

[PedroPereira]

i bought a pair of ma bx2 to partner with nad d3020, but i need to change because the sound is tho bright, expecially the treble is too harsh, any other options? i like warmer sound, not so analitic.

I was talking to someone today and they said Bowers & Wilkins are warm, but check them out for yourself

 

[PedroPereira]

i have a shortlist of possible options:

- Acoustic energy 301

- B&W 685

- Qacosutics 2020i/concept 20

- Wharfedale 121/122

- Xtz 93.23

Any advice over this options? or other you think i must listen

Yes find your local HiFi shop and go listen, never buy blind! Remember what you like someone else might not...

Out of that list, I'd definitely try the Concept 20.

If the budget can be stretched, the Kef LS 50s would be worth a listen.......Stereophile were so impressed when they matched them with the d3020 that they said, "but toward the end of the listening period I hooked it up to a pair of glorious KEF LS50s ($1499/pair) and turned the volume up high. I was bowled over by the sound, which easily matched the best I'd ever heard at home, and reminded me in many ways of what I'd recently experienced with the tubed Croft Phono Integrated ($1895)."

i know i should try before but it's difficult to locate a dealer with such variety. so i have to make some priorities and for that i'm asking some help

Heard the Nad with zensor 1 and lektor 2 playing (streaming) from a iphone it sounded distorted in the bass and sounded like a mp3 file, but it wasnt to bright (zensor 1 could be bright) try mabye some other speaker cable.

Did you find any solution?
