B&W N800, 800D, 802D for my room 16x17x8

802 for sure IMO and you will be fine with them. Just be sure to give them a soiid strong solid state amp IMO to be sure you get the dynamics and response they are capable of. These amps are voiced with the use of Classe Solid State amps from what I understand and think B&W does better with SS. Thats not to say that good sound can't be done with B&W and tube gear. I just think it will be better with SS. Also my opinion is that you need to get as close to B&W max power rating.

My room is 14'(front)X24'(deep) and use N802's and a 108" screen, There is 7'6" between them and sit about 10' back to the front row seating. I play both music and movies with excellent results. I also use stereo B&W ASW800 subs up front for just a little extra definition and authority but blended very naturaly. They are not needed but icing on the cake with the N802's. Best of luck with your results.

I have N800's and 802's, and they never sound and I quote "Flabby/slow/bloated maybe but never tight". I guess that individuals experience is way different than mine and perhaps did not have a good room or setup.

I have driven these with Mark Levinson, Bryston and ASR's, and bass was great and tight, but for me a lowly 140watt monoamp with 4 KT88's per side gives me the musical experience that I have yet to hear in any system outside of my own. I know, bragging and all of that, but the truth is, my wife and I both agree that we have yet to hear anything sound so natural as our system.

Do yourself a favor and if you are interested in a particular speaker, try them at home and set them up correctly, then make your selection, otherwise you are going to get a bunch of opinions, some with more experience than others and some based on stereotypes from only one listen in less than ideal listening conditions. Your amp choices should be tried with the speakers so that you can verify for yourself if the amps will harmonize with the speakers and your room.

The 800 series are a great speaker and they have brought us many hours and years of musical listening pleasure.
