Yes a lot of love. Nice unpacking pics but I was hoping for a sound check:rolleyes:

I still think my D2's are better looking but I have to admit that they are growing on me after seeing your photos.

Hans, that looks like your next speaker :exciting:
 
Gorgeous! In my mind, B&W finally got the design right! Absolutely love the new look. So glad they abandoned those god awful yellow drivers. The aluminum on the back is sexy as hell. First time in my audiophile life that I'm lusting after the 800s. The 803s are the ones I'd like. Sleeker than the 802s and still dig way deep.
 
Geez.... no love for B&W here ! :sigh::)


Heard them last week(fully broken in) , they look much better in person then online pictures.


Honestly not my cup of tea, (very forward sounding speakers ) Focal Sopra 2 a Much better value(with correct amp)


Dealer tried 3 different Pre and Amp combo, finally he admitted these speakers on the bright side (good dynamics) Best played at lower levels


#1 Mac C50 Pre and MAC 452 SS --- low levels ok-but mid to hi levels a very forward sounding

#2 Bryston Pre and Bryston 4b ---- good dynamics but top end was forward sounding

# 3 Ayre Pre and Ayre V-5xe ----- warm smooth light on grip (bass) top end still a hair forward
 
Paul - Beautiful speakers and great shots! I am sure they sound wonderful. Nothing like new speaker day, those days are very very rare and very far between, but oh what a feeling eh?

Let us know how you like them, I suspect they are sublime.

Thanks but it's not mine. I heard this new series sounds quite better than former generation. Love to hear them myself.
 
We've got 802's too :-D
