Even if the woofers were the same (I'm sure they are not), the tweeters are two completely different tweeters. Which means the crossovers need to be redesigned (not tweaked, redesigned). It may "work" but I am positive you won't be in the same league as the actual 805d. FWIW, I would suspect that $800 each won't buy you a pair of diamond tweeters. I know that companies like accuton want about $5800 for the pair. B&W's are not that expensive, but I'm sure they are quite pricey.
B&W 805s tweeters replaced with diamonds
I read, (on another site) where someone had replaced the tweeters in their B&W 805s monitors with the new B&W diamond tweeter. They raved about the sound. Has anyone heard of or attempted this? Are the crossovers, other internal "stuff" the same? I have 805s and love em but have read some fantastic reviews regarding the diamond tweeter. Just curious.
