I ordered the Denon D33 minisystem and it's an amazing for such a small
system.

The order I made came witht he SC-M53 speakers, but in the UK, you can
order it via separate components and get the SC-M73 speakers for
slightly more.

I know the changes the slight cosmetic changes. But sound-wise, the
woofer on the M73 is 10cm larger and the figures rate the bass going
down to 45 Hz on the M73 instead of 47 Hz on the M53.

Has anybody done an A/B on these two? How much am I missing out
sound-wise?

"I know the changes the slight cosmetic changes." Hmmm?

Seriously, the Denon mini systems have been admired for years. Some
reviewers have claimed the amp section compares with high end amps.
I'd like to hear more about the amp if you feel like posting a review
when you get everything sorted out.

"I know the changes the slight cosmetic changes."

Sorry, I meant "I know the slight cosmetic changes" between the two
models, which are that the SC-73 is slightly larger (to accomodate its
slightly larger woofer) and the front panel that is normally covered by
the net is woodgrain as well, instead of grey in the SC-53.

Put more clearly than in my original message: In the UK, the D33
minisytem is sold as a separate head unit, and you can purchase the
SC-53 or SC-73 speakers separately. For the rest of the world
(including the US), the D33 and SC-53 are sold only as a package.
Statistically there's only a minor difference between the two speakers,
but when you're shopping for the nicest mini system possible, it's a
shame that there's some slightly better speakers out there made for
your system but aren't available because of some geographic marketing
differences.

The D33 has gotten rave reviews as a replacement for the D31. I'll
post a review when I've gotten past the initial glow. Generally it's
amazing how much crystal clear sound comes out of such a small unit,
and I'm using the generic speaker cable that comes with the unit (to be
replaced this weekend!)
