Better? / Worse? / Just Different?
Inquiring minds want to know.
For now only Polish version of B&W802D3 review
And if you can take away any impressions from the English translation of that, let me know.
Hello Marcin,
the Pass XA100.8 are enuogh for the 802/803d3 ? for me yes but maybe you have tested this combo!
thank you
Hans, that looks like your next speaker :exciting:
Sorry but I don't understand why you say that. I was on an audio show in the Netherlands a few weeks ago and at the same show the French Focal people were demoing the Sopra 2 and the British B&W people the 802D3. It was simply no comparison! The 802 D3 is the closest to reality I have ever experienced (next to the Magico Ultimate 3 in Munich 2014).I really like the looks too. It's just that the sound didn't blow me away. I would wait for the Sopra 3. : )
I wasn't looking for new speakers Mark. But now I have heard them and they sound awesome! The price has almost doubled by the way :-(
The Belgian high-end audio dealer Alpha in Brasschaat (Antwerpen) is organizing a shootout between my D2's and the new D3's. I am afraid to go there.....

heard the 803 d3's yesterday with a devialet 200,...

... sure as hell won't be going down that road. speakers had 150+ hrs on them.
I thought that the "803 d3" with the Devialet was very average. Slightly soft presentation, with little weight or lack of presentation really. Bit like the old blanket analogy actually.Do tell....do tell....come on.
