Persona 3f vs B&W 802D2s
I am in the market for new pair of floor standers, I am starting with the speakers and then will decide on how to drive them. I listen to everything from classic rock, country, easy listening, classical, musicals, opera, and jazz. The majority would be in the classic rock category.
My listening room is 14'x18' with 9' ceilings, carpet and untreated. I also have a 24'x24'x20' family room that this system may get re-purposed if the wife lets me put floor standers in there (it is a Florida home with built in cabinets so I currently have KEF R300, R center with LS50 rear and it is not enough for the room).
My speaker budget is around $10k and really like the Persona 3f (and my wife likes the look) for $10k or a demo pair of B&W 802D2s for $9k. Was just wondering how the community would compare these two speakers. Unfortunately I cannot listen to them side by side.

Hey Contuzzi right on, that is why we say add a good sub which helps round out the sound and give some additional augmentation. One of the other main differences between the 5F and the 3F is the larger cabinet size interacts in the room to produce a bigger overall sonic picture. The 3F are indeed a bargin especailly considering the remakable driver technology. Setup correctly absoulutely amazing we would take the Person 3F over many much more expensive loudspeakers and when used with a sub you would have to spend a boat load more money to find something better even twice the price. The new Naim stuff is awesome we have the little Atom and it sound crazy good, the Nova replaces the Super Uniti which was pretty special in its day, the new Nova is supposed to come much closer to Naim's $13k Nac 272/250DR setup for $7k. https://hometheaterreview.com/naim-uniti-atom-all-in-one-wireless-music-player-reviewed/?page=2 |
The Personas were one of the best speakers at RMAF this fall . Stat like in room presence of instruments and singers . Perfect frequency response is how I would describe them . All of this in a tiny hotel room . Can’t imagine how great they must be in a good sized treated room . On my short list of speakers to buy , along with Triangle Signature Alpha speakers . |
