Mike, how new is this? I thought I already heard Diamonds in a Magnolia earlier this year when I heard the big Mc Monos.
 
Amazing. Reverse cabinet, continuum drivers, new turbine aluminum head...

Wowow
 
I see a pair of the 802s in my future but I am not ready to part with my Salons.
 
That pic of the white 805 is hot!!

Gotta agree with Vapor on this one.

As an aside, is anybody else getting a Mario Bros vibe from these speakers? I'm half expecting angry torpedo's to fire outta em'. :D
 
I was back at Best Buy Magnolia over last weekend and got to hear the McMonos and the new Ds. I have to say WOW! What big and effortless sound. What was most noticeable, and probably had to do with setup and the room, was just how huge the soundstage was. Not just the width, but I almost found myself looking at wear the back wall met the ceiling where the vocals were coming from.

It looks like maybe I should combine my retirement budget for a dog and a new system since this particular setup is a bit out of my range.
 
Bryan - I heard the 805D3's at Bruce's. Awesome speaker! Did you hear the 802D3?

Mike,

It was the 802s. But the sales guy told me that the 805s would blow away almost every other pair of bookshelves and floor standers they had besides a few pairs of Sonus Fabers.

Bruce has his with an ARC integrated and it sounds superb. Open is a great way to describe them.
