I personally would go with the Monitor Audio because I am an MA user myself!

monitor audio is the better brand

Received your 875 already?

When I like both speakers, my ears can't help to decide, I always go back to the specs sheet. Look at the frequency response range, power, driver size, etc. The the colour, design etc.

Go for the RS6!

I own a Monitor Audio, so that is my biased vote. I would even go for BR6 over the MS.

where can I see/audition these speakers?
prices are per pair, right.

yup...price per pair

Monitor Audio seems to have better reputation of reviews everywhere

Forget about the reviews, when you buy speakers, you buy the one suit your taste, not the one have best review.

Since he can't choose between both ... looking at specs and reviews juz like asking suggestions here

His problem here, he likes the sound of both speakers. So this bits and pieces of info can help him decide.

Then, let's see which of our poison is the deadliest.

For Monitor Audio Silver Series (RS), you can go audit at Audiophiles Collection (Rave Audio) at CIty Square.

To me MA is a better bet. But thats my view, important is your own ears and your preference's. You take your own CD and Audition them again. Best of luck.

You got a onkyo-txsr875, Nice

i am also a Monitor Audio Owner.....currently Own MONITOR AUDIO BR2 powered by Marantz PM7001 K.I....i love it..

will the sound too bright? vocal warm enough?

Agree with you. It might have good reviews but it might not sounds right to your ears.

good job on narrowing down your speaker choices to these two... since they both sound good to u & price is similar, then to me the choice is simple.. just go for the speakers that look good to u or fits ur home deco more. cheers

Well at that price, depends on your taste, if u want laid back and yet wide soundstage, give an audition to AAD silver reference 1. Make sure you listen to the Reference series (not the C-series).

It comes with Piano finish. place Acoustic Lim at Amcorp mall.

TS should go audit those speaker before buying.

Did you guys even read the first post, he already audit the speaker, and narrowed to those two. He likes both, so now he's asking our opinions to choose.

So it's not about how it sounds anymore. Now he has to consider about the look, color, specs, warranty, brand reputations, etc. Let's give your input (or poison).
