Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced?


I see a lot of negative commentary on B&W. Why? Are they overpriced? Do they not sound as amazing as they look? Are they too “main stream”? - I love my 805 d3’s but curious why they get such a bad rep.

805d3 (happy) owner. These are in my office set up and are fed by a McIntosh C47 pre and MC-152 SS amp. Tidal streaming is source. Small room 11’x13’x9’. System components are a perfect match which provides an incredibly full range of sound with exceptional sound stage. Absolutely no sub required. If I was starting over I would buy this same system again. Total audio satisfaction / enjoyment. :)
