Yep, Them's Be Good For Music!
I recently saw someone on audiogon selling their N803 which where used for rear surrounds??? Hopefully most N805's are being used in a 5.1 Audio set-up, waste of a good speaker for HT.
If you go for the N805's your going to need a sub, may I recommend Rel. The two Britt's compliment each other very well.
The CDM-9NT is a Great sounding speaker also, which you could p/u for the same price as a pair of used 805's.
With the 9NT's you wouldn't need stands, nor a sub (initally). The 9's have the FST midrange of the N804-800 line-up, something the 805's lack.
As all in all, the N805's are Cdm-1nt's in Nautilus clothing. I would run them head to head w/ the cdm-1nt's if you need a stand-mounter, do to room constrictions???
Both are Stereophile B rated.
Honestly, not to talk in circles here? The 805's are grand for music, however till you hit the N803 level there's better deals in B&W CDM line.
