Question about B&W 801

I am thinking about buying a B&W 801. I have listened to a Matrix Series 2, and was impressed by the bass response. My question is: what is the difference between Matrix Series 2, Series 3, and between those and the much more expensive Nautilus 801? Also, what's the difference between the 801 series and the Nautilus 802? Thanks.

I am biased but the N801's are worth it at about twice the price of the Matrix 801. I have listened to the Matrix 801 S3 and my N801's are much more natural and smoother sounding (at least in my system).

The 802 has a smaller woofer area and works better in smaller rooms than the N801.
