Stuck between the B&W Px8s2 and Dali IO-8
I own both PX8s2 and the Dali IO-8. I’ve been using them for about three months. I also used the original PX8 for about a month and returned after I got PX8s2.

Stuck between the B&W Px8s2 and Dali IO-8
I have also tired both and even though the Dali IO-8 sounds balance and all. I kinda didn't like how it was build and the bass up features sounded so muddy. Another thing was the when doing calls I could hear myself talk trough the micronephone (no option to turn that off). So I wouldn't recommend t
