If not familiar with Aphrodites Child 666 it's a concept album based on the book of the Bible Revelations. You sort of have to begin and let it flow, it's not something you will get by sampling it. However, the track Four Horsemen did get some...

Being a Classic Rock fan I first became aware of him through the group Aphrodites Child, album 666 later his album with Jon Anderson of Yes, Friends of Mr. Cairo. That and his solo and soundtrack material will leave a nice legacy.

The 800D4 series is dead nuts neutral and more bottom up then top down Vs the old series. It’s exceedingly musical.

Who told you that B&W raised the price on the 801D4’s $3000 today?
Man, you really need to find a good dealer.

I’m glad you’re doing what you feel is best. It would have been good to give the A5’s more time, but it’s up to you.
It’s bizarre to me that a B&W dealer would try to talk you out of the 801D4’s. They are an amazing speaker. The A5’s are...

Why would a dealer not take A5’s “at any price”?
What are your plans? Are you going with 801D4’s? If so, I strongly suggest you find a local dealer, work with that local dealer and audition them, just to be sure.
