Good morning all you forumites, so i got together with Jozinic to listen to the Bentley's that he has bought and i must say i'm very impressed.

They look good and they sound spectacular.  Very impressed with the build quality aswell.

Guys - if you in the market for a new set of speakers - or if you curious to find out how they sound - go listen to them - you will probably go home with a set in your car...that's how good they are.

And because they are locally made - their prices are very affordable against stuff imported from overseas.

5 stars!!

You know i got those klipsch, and i was hoping for a wow factor - not sure if my expectations were set to high - but compared to my b&w's - they really are not any better, think the B&W's are actually better (and they are 17 years old!!!).  That claim on efficiency - they not more efficient than the b&w's - -20 on the amp - no difference in loudness whatsoever - they sound good, clean but less open than the b&w's which i thought they would be more open...the b&w's will kill the klipsch in loudness - the klipsch can only handle 85w - approx -10 on my amp - i wont push them more than that - b&w's can handle 100w - hence full power on the amp and more on certain songs - where is that efficiency they claim? - In the manual they say to exercise caution as they can go VERY loud - um no b&w's go louder and they only 91db - the klipsch are "supposed" to be 94db

So ya that's my experience...

lesson learnt - really really research speakers - yes it was a bit of an impulsive buy - i really just bought them so i can say i own a pair - really respect the heritage range to be honest but will never afford it.
