B&W 'New' 800 Series

Kot - I was in Stereo exchange over the weekend and didn't see the 800s there - They're in the process of moving, so perhaps they've already been packed up?  Their listening rooms were all pretty sparse and even blocked off from the public.

Too bad since as an original N800 owner, these are a very logical upgrade and I'd love to give them a listen and see if they live up to the high expectations.

Kot - I know that told me but I totally forgot - My guess is that their lease is up and that given their location at Broadway and Bleeker it's got to be going up big time.  That said, you should give them a call and ask,

In the meantime, if you're into vinyl, they have all their demo records for sale at $3/ pop and I got a smoking deal on the new B&W P9s (I did a quick write up in member reviews here yesterday).

In any event still need to get in front of these speakers and see how they compare to my current 800s - Honestly, I was never a fan of any of the diamond series 800s, but I realize that these are a whole new design generation so definitely worth checking out.

Only problem is if I go for them, the $3K in sales tax here in NYC will basically suck :)
