Upgrade to Nautilus 805 Signature?

Hi fellow Audiogoners. I have an opportunity to trade up my current N805s to the 805 Signatures. Should I take this opportunity? Do the 805 Signatures really sound that much better? Or should I just add an Sony SCD-1 to my system and keep the regular 805s? Thanks for checking out my thread. Any reccomendations would be greatly appreciated.

Yet the line-up of Monitors really changes at the Signature 805's list price range. I'd have to really question the 805's -vs- JM Labs Micro Utopias -vs- Wilson-Benesch Arcs -vs-...........

Oops "TRADE UP" ???

If your Bowers & Wilkins dealer is letting you trade up at exactly what you paid for your old 805's, then by all means the upgrade is a No Brainer!!!

Thanks for all the responses. Unfortunalty I do not have the opportunity to audition the 805 Signatures. I would love to audition the Wilson Arcs, but again I do not have any extreme high end dealers nearby.

I do realize that the trade up would be a no brainer. Its a bummer that I could not listen before the trade up. If I do trade up though, I know that just from the great feedback that I received I will most likely be in for a heart palpitating treat.

Blane,
How is your dealer letting you upgrade???
I ask this because I just took home the N805s 6 weeks ago..and i would love to trade them Up to the Sig 805 if the fee was right. I love the N805 but the no brainer is that the Sigs are that much better sounding (and looking)
Please let me know the details of this upgrade...
As I would try to do the same thing!
