B&W 800D vs 800 Diamond

Thanks so much Zd542 and Kr4. Have decided to save up my money for the B&W 802D2...:-)

Rohsal,

Sorry if I gave you the wrong impression. I thought you just wanted to know how to identify the speakers by model. I didn't mean for it to be an endorsement of any kind. I really don't care for B&W speakers at all. I'm not trying to talk you out of getting them, but I wouldn't want to talking you into getting them either.

Oh sure Zd542 ...I just made up my mind based on reviews. Will hear them too next week...:-)

In looks, how to tell the difference is.

The d2
has silver rings around the speakers.
has no holes for grill tabs in the cabnet.
by the terminals it says diamond not just a "D"
If it is the black finish, it will be piano gloss.

Rohsal,

Give the Vivid B1 or G3 a listen and compare to the 802's. You will be pleasantly surprised. Do a search on them comparing the two. Lots of people have and went with the Vivids.
