Liked the Nautilus 805 but found better?

For the best results the N805 need good stands. When you factor that in (say $500 more at least), there is only a $1000 or less difference in price with the N804. If I had $3500 to spend I would look for a used pair of N803. If I had only $2000 to spend I would look for a used pair of Matrix 803-2. (Assuming you want floor standers.)

Or a pair of Matrix 802-3 for around $2000 to $2500. I assume you want to stick with B&W.
