Survey: B&W

Just for fun. Is it the original 801, matrix 801, Nautilus 801 Signature? Is it the Silver Signature? Signature 30's? The "pregnant penguin" DM6? The $250.00/pr DM302? Anyone remember the 808? Matrix800? Cast your vote. My choice as audiophile and fan for 30 years----the Original 801! I'll tally in 3 days and post the results.

Actively bi-amped Matrix 800's

I was really amazed at Phasecorrect's statement about B&W's price. I would say the opposite. Without going into the many virtues of the Nautilus speakers:
I would put my Dan D'Agostino's designed, actively biamped B&W800's up against almost anything at any price. The Wilson X-1's can't match up to them. My speakers my not be cheap ($15,000 + $4,000 x-over = $19,000), but in the arena of $80,000 speakers, they were an amazing bargain.

In my not so humble opinion,
Richard
