I just heard BW Nautilus 802 speakers. All i can tell you is, they are Sweeeeeeeeeet sounding. Thanks get back
Recently listened to 801's, 802's and Thiels (6 and others) when I accompanied my sister for her purhcase of a new system. The B&W's are without a doubt my favorite. She thought so too and bought the 802's.
The N802's are certainly a fine speaker. But also in this price range and besides the Thiels are: Waveform Mach 17, Dunlavy SC-IV/A, Snell Type A, API Energy Veritas 2.8, Magneplanar MG20, Martin Logan MIII, KEF R4, and others.After listening to all of them, I purchased one of these speakers, but it was NOT the B&W.
