They are Arcs, the rest of the system is in a corner by the other settee so its not east to photograph.
Arcs, Hackernaps, Starfish pre, Densen B410 cd, B800 tuner, Roksan Xerxes Artemz Dynavector 10x5.
Virgin box, Sky box, mini Pc under the TV

@Pete MB&D do the neighbours not mind you pointing your telescope into their garden? : )

That grass must be a bugger to water and mow.

On the back wall we have this suede rug, which is good to display rainbows on.

@Pete MB&D My mother always said Red & Green should never be seen.

I thought that was blue and green.

That's interesting since blue and green can often be seen on clothing so have looked it up on the net (what a sad old sod)
It appears it is 50/50 on whether it is blue and green or red and green. The saying I know is 'red and green should never be seen, only on a fool', and I did find this quoted.
No fools were harmed during my investigations

Arcs with felt anti difraction felt, they really work they make the image much more focused. The grills need the edges of the holes chamfering as well, I did mine before I recovered them.

Exactly, but you said blue and green should never be seen. I said red and green should never be seen.

When these came up in the classifieds I immediately told myself to stop even looking. The Wilson Benesch Discovery 2s were/are fantastic, but I’d already decided that I needed bass in my life, and after an extended demo decide against*. I thought I’d look to scale back and save some money…
But, I live in Worthing.
Where these beautiful things call home.
They are B&W 802 D3s.
So, my resistance lasted only a week at most, and a long round trip (with excellent stop over!) ensued.
These have a similar quality to the Discoveries, but with another octave of bass. And that last octave of bass has significant impact on what you might associate with mid-range. I really, really, hope these are the grail.
Relatively poor pic, but just wanted to share my joy as I sit hear listening to them. At 95kg per speaker, I think I’m stuck with them. In the best way one can be stuck. Even Mrs Wb likes them, and she’s stuck with me, so there we go.
* edit: forgot the p.s. Wilson Benesch have been fantastic. Cannot recommend them highly enough.
