B&W Best ! 🎉

[@pdajek]

I am listening to this test on the 606 s2. The zx-1s are nice speakers but however the 606 s2s have a lot more detail which I can hear.

[@caznrod]

Both are excellent speaker for the price. B&W seems brighter and more detailed. It's a matter of taste, as usual... I did a upgrade with my 606 S2 AE, totally happy and there's no comparison even with the "bigger" brother 706.S3... thanks for shearing the sound test.

[@Zoneho]

Thank you for the test. I prefer Mission

[@RomSolo]

Спасибо большое!

[@wilki70]

Mission👌

[@robertogarcia-qu9nb]

Te BEST, bowers, for me.

[@qaisrafique9454]

Test the zx2

[@high_fidelity_stuff]

Seems like you can't have it all. Imo from this example the B&W lacks soul but it does a much better job of reproducing the top end. The Missions, whilst fuller sounding, are missing some sparkle at the top.

[@RennieAsh]

The Mission is better balanced, sounds less transparent than recording by a bit, though to be expected.
B&W more extended bass and treble but too much treble - on Blinded the cymbals etc are much more prominent than the recording.

[@gg0297]

Where are the mid frequencies on the B&W? Damn...

[@RennieAsh]

They moved them up to the treble ;p

[@qaisrafique9454]

Mission
