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.

Negative Commentary? ...Seriously? It’s Audiogon; C’mon Man - perhaps the most complicated and comprehensive place where opinions fly by faster than the jet fighters. B&W’s make good products and have been a hot topic on this forum from the extreme to the absurd. “Does your 805 sound great to Y-O-U?” ...are you having Fun?  ...do you enjoy the hobby? 
Only you can answer this. 
“Me?”...changed from B&W (805) to Joseph Audio and I’m doing jumping jacks of joy. Thinking about Harbeth might be nice too. 
Happiness Abounds.
