B W 802N versus 801M


Anyone out there given these two speakers a run for their money? I have a set of 801III and am going to the 802N.
Step up, down, or lateral?

Using California Audio Labs CL-2500 (500x5) amplifier fo power.

Your input is appreciated.

Thanks for the response. I have the 801II upgraded to III AND THE NORTHCREEK external crossovers. I have a chance to go to the 802 Nautilus. Was wondering what I will find better about the difference?

What is your experience?
Thanks for the response. I am running the Cal amp, a McIntosh MX-132 preamp and the McIntosh DVD. I notice the M801's need more power than I have, odd, but true.

So as I expect, I lose a bit on the bottom end, but gain in the clarity of the mid/high frequency of the Nautilus line.
I love the M801's, but was hoping for a bit cleaner sound at HIGH levels.

Worthy?
