I bought this same speaker in 1981 and still own them. Last month I packed them away after >26 yrs. of blissful listening but still am considering pulling back out because of their sheer honesty and non-fatiguing nature. I wouldn't change a thing that's not broken. I don't think you will gain that much. They love gobs of clean power, and actually sound better at moderate volume. Voila!
B&W 801 Series 80 Upgrading - thoughts? Input?
Hi,
I have recently become the owner of some original 801 series 80 speakers.
I was told that I could upgrade the tweeters to series 2 or 3.
my question is...has anyone here done this or heard of it being done? Will I need to also change the crossover??
Any input/guidance would be much appreciated
