When my first wife died, I needed a present so I got B&W 802 (I think). They might have been wonderful when I auditioned them, but they got very "annoying" in less than a month with my components......got Vandersteens and have remained.
Bowers and Wilkins, 801 D4
Hi all, i'm looking to get some new speakers, maybe Wilson audio sasha DAW, or B&W 801 D4, my amp is the Audionet Humboldt integrated ,

Price: $55,000, i have mk 1 sasha's at the moment, sounds v-good, would my amp have enough grunt , for the B&W,s, they do have two 10" base drivers, on paper they are easier to drive, but as we know in real life, not always the case , i am in England, so Wilsons are £40,000, B&W £32,500, a big difference, thanks
