B&W will actually recone the woofer. Call Equity (the parent of B&W, in Massachusetts I believe). I have a pair of 808s and bought the last of the spare midrange drivers and tweeter diaphragms from B&W in England. I agree that there are some things that small speakers just can't do. Set up properly these speakers have serious impact. Great for rock and large-scale music. Finally found a speaker I prefer more...my new ATC anniversary 100 towers. Same impact as the 808s but more refined.
B&W Series 80 808's
Hi,
anyone have info. on these? My Dad was given a pair, which I have not yet seen - one of them has both 12" woofers blown. He was told that at the time they were the "flagship" product of the series. Can anyone tell me about the quality/performance of these speakers (I only have experience with the Matrix line) and also any suggestions on how to repair them?
Thanks
