Obviously none of the speaker in this thread are good enough to keep them as many folks get new ones every few years - or even more frequently.

Of course it is also coupled with adavncement in speaker technology, new amps, pre-phono stages etc.. But still - very few real winners.
Changing from 803 to 801 will be an improvement. Those marlan head midrange enclosure makes a difference. I had the 803's then upgraded to 802's a big improvement overall,better bass, midbass and midrange. By the size of your room, you may want to consider the 802's or 803d.
