How's aboutnthese new Diamond B&W's???


Haven't yet gotten a chance to hear them but wonderif the extra $3K is worth it.I know thatbthey are supposed togo as low as the regular 802 Nautilus.But they are quite bit bigger with the extra driver and size is an issue in my current room.
Anybody spent any time with them?If you had a amplifier thatb could swing the nasy impedance dip even though they are rated 90db rating so good stable amp.Wonder if they plan an 804N with a bit more depth.Always found just he soundstage let alone the bass made the 803 worth the ea\xtra $1500 but I am of the ilk that if one has money any of the (up to 803) could use a sub to fill things out.

>>Have gotten great Sterophile review this issue<<

A good review in Stereophile? Now there's some news. I wouldn't put too much stock into that. Everything gets a good review or is Class A these days.
Old B&W, new B&W, same old same old.
How about the wonderful review in The Absolute Sound magazine by Sue Kraft, October/November 2005 issue 156 ? (Not everthing gets a good review in TAS ) Now here's a magazine one can put a lot of stock in. I would like to quote some lines from this review but I haven't written for the permission and even though most of us really reads these reviews for the fun of it it still makes for some very interesting reading. Wow, in the past two months, two glowing reviews from the top two US audio magazines on the new B&W diamond series speakers. I feel safe to say, old B&W, still fabulous speakers, and the new diamond series, even better. B&W, they just keep getting better and better.

Yeah, bet the farm on those guys. Check out that bridge in Brooklyn that's for sale too.
