| B&W 'New' 800 Series I'm not sure what Bo1972 is talking about. The 803 D3s don't fit his descriptions of the 802 D3 sound at all. I doubt they are that different with only 1" difference in driver size on the bass and mid-range drivers. These are the best sounding spe... | |
| Advice on using a laser for speaker positioning I use a laser to shoot minocs when they are chewing on my power cables. | |
| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? "Jkalman, the sibilance is a phase distortion issue & it won't go away with toe-in (like Zd542 wrote). I bet that whatever you try you will not be able to get rid of it. It's inherent in the speaker design & the 4th order x-over. The boomy... | |
| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? Right now the only criticism I can aim at them is a slight sibilance in the higher ranges of the human voice along with the boominess in certain low frequencies of the human voice. Tomorrow I hope to see if the sibilance can be eliminated with les... | |
| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? Tompoodie, to respond directly to your criticism of the 803 D3, after spending another few hours with them. I would wonder if they were not set up well or were too close to the walls. My experience with them listening to a few recordings with exce... | |
| B&W D3s have landed Once I can find a dealer willing to sell me a pair of the 803 D3s at a discounted price, I'm ready to buy a pair. | |
| B&W D3s have landed They sound incredible. Very realistic sounding notes. I'm going to play with them some more tomorrow to see how toe-in affects the sound stage, but as it stands, the notes from high to low frequency sound extremely realistic with proper attack and... | |
| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? BTW, I would love to find a pair of these on sale or discounted once they've been out for a bit. I'm a ready buyer when they come along at the right price... | |
| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? I listened to the 803 D3 earlier today. The sound quality was incredible. The room setup was a bit small, and whoever set them up put them close to the wall, which caused the mid-range (voices especially) to sound muffled and raspy, and caused the... | |

| HELP B&W 802D or Revel Ultima Salon2 I've owned both. Both are great speakers. I loved the diamond tweeter on the 802Ds, but overall I liked the integrated sound of the Salon2 better. You really should go listen for yourself though... | |
