Anyone Hear the New Nautilus 800 Yet?


There's alot of "buzz" starting up and alot of hearsay and second hand comments. I know of several dealers with the speakers now on order, including my local dealer, however I don't know anyone who has heard them.

Has anyone heard the new B&W Signature 800 Nautilus yet, first hand. What were your impressions, and what type of electronics were used?

I holding off a speaker upgrade until I can include these in my evaluation. (Eidelons are my current front runner.)

Thanks in advance.

The B&W 800s still have the British sound. Still a bit too colored in the mids and rounded on the bottom end. Not my cup. I thought the dynamics were a bit slow. But I did hear it with Audio Research tube gear, so would have to audition with solid state gear.
