Hi,
This article says it should cost 71k - The Hindu : Metro Plus Delhi / Wired In : Sound of music B&W 683
However, at a dealer, the price quoted was 105k (or 1.05L).
I wonder why would "The Hindu" quote ridiculously low amount? I suspect that the dealer is overcharging. Is that suspicion correct?
Sidetrack -
I auditioned 684 and 683. I like 683 because of its deeper bass, but more important - it's looks.
I am definitely not the best person to audition and review speakers - I do not find much of a difference between most speakers (maybe I have not heard them all together, maybe I am placing too much emphasis on visuals).
I have till now heard JBL L890, ES100 (I found ES100 very good at bass, but less clear than L890). However, I think the cost of L890 is insanely high compared to what it is selling at in the US.
I have also heard some Mordaunt Short speakers yesterday (could not do much of an audition) but was just listening to it when someone else was auditioning it - I was in a hurry and waited for an hour or so and then walked out. I think they were producing very clean sound. Not sure if they would have enough power for a big room. Looks wise, I prefer TALL HUGE floor standers instead of those small Mordaunts.
Looking forward to audition Dali, Monitor Audio, Boston etc.
