    I loved my B&W 802 D2s, with Classe and McIntosh…. and always wanted a pair of 805s.

    I've got a pair of 805s that were once the rear channels of mu theater system. I replaced them with 4 SCMS Rear & surrounds. Now I use the 805s in my family room for music only. They're really a good performing speaker.

    Although my Nautilus 805s are aging (12+ years old) at this point, and all the models that have come since have improved their sound, I really...really love mine.
