B&W 702 Signature vs The original B&W 702 S2

@soix3
 I don't think you wasted your time at all. You provided valuable information to the viewers of this thread. We also addressed the OP's disenchantment with his speakers from two differing viewpoints. So, I see your contribution as well worth your time, even though you were casting pearls. However, we shouldn't have blocked the hordes of commentators who actually have had experience with exactly those two models in an a/b setting. We were remiss in that way.  

Not at all disenchanted with my speakers. Never eluded to that. They are absolutely lovely in appearance and sound. Read dozens of reviews prior to the purchase and after. Considering their price point I would find them hard to beat. A great bang for the buck! That being said, I am simply interested to see if anyone had the opportunity to evaluate the upgrades. I run McIntosh equipment ,Oppo UHD player and LG OLED for movies. As my listening is 70% music I am currently looking for a better speaker as I see no sense in upgrading the equipment at this point. When B&W announced this upgrade it perked my interest.
I’ve wanted a pair of the 800 series for some time and was simply curious if the 702 Signature was worth the additional cost and would I be pleased with the purchase. I thought I’d first start here at Audiogon instead of heading out to the local showroom due to the current lock downs by the overlords.
Yes,there are many different speakers but I like the sound of the B&W.
I apologize if I came across harsh (did not mean to) but I saw the thread developing into another thread.
I do appreciate the input. Thank you.

I'm a huge fan of B&W. I even use my 45 year old DM5's as rear speakers. There is certainly something unique about the B&W sonic signature- like a beautiful human voice emanating from them. It's subjective no matter what anyone says. But my last piece of advice is to do the upgrade if it's not too much of a financial stretch. If it claims to correct any deficiencies without adding any new ones, it's not really gambling. B&W has offered mods of products for many years and haven't triggered any class action suits that I know of. Go for it. 

Sorry, I now realize that the Signatures are the upgrades, not an option to upgrade your S2's. Oh, well. That's an expensive option in my book, but others have taken that route, I'm sure.

This is informative, but doesn't compare the two:
