Sony Pascal 835 ED Speakers

[cuthbertson74]

Hi,

I am considering getting these along with the STR-DB 1080 receiver next month.

The 705s I remember were pretty much slated - anyone got or heard the 835s? Are they better? Are they so bad that to the non-audiophile such as myself, they will still sound really pretty damn good?

Any comments.....

Cheers,
Iain

Have has this set up for a few weeks now and can only tell you that it works very well, the subs very good and looks better than most.

Hi I have the 705's ( which got slated as you said) I've just upgraded my Sony 475 to a Denon 2802 and I can hear a big improvement already. I am at the moment thinking about upgrading my 705's to 835 as the styling fits in nicely ( more importantly the wife wouldn't notice). My question is are the 805's that much better than the 705's?
