    took delivery of 804 S, WOW :>

    On friday I got my 804 S in rosenut + Rotel rsx-1057 + Nordost Red Dawn
    after setting them up, I coldn't wait to hear them in my place and WOW' WOW, WOW, I listened for 30 min. or os and things I never heared before on that cd. The soundstage, felt like filled the whole front, clearity , and tight. I really had hard time turning it off as I had to get up early next morning for work.
    My wife looked at me and said: I'm happy that you happy (no upgrades for some time she ment).
    I'll post some pictures and thoughts on them some more!!!

      Hello..

      So you happy with the 804s powered by Rotel rsx 1057? That's very good! But but but... they all said those 804s have much more potential... if you power them with higher wattage amp, you know... 200 watts, 300 watts.... :demon:

      Congrats on the new purchase! :T

          I got my 804s in the spring and experienced the same thing. Give your speakers about two months and your "WOW WOW WOW" factor will turn into "WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW"! Enjoy...

                      thanks, I have been and still thinking about amp., but not gonna happen for a while.
                      I tested with Mac.252 I think, Bryston 4B-SST is another one.
                      The dealer that I bought from is very, very helpfull and nice guy (Buffallo).
                      My next purchase would be amp + HTM3 S.

                                      Yes - welcome to the 804S club!

                                      I demoed a Bryston with my 804s - it sounded great.

                                      I suggest the Bryston if you can!
