B&W 802D vs Focal Kanta 3

I brought home the kanta 3 store demo's and got no bass below 80 hz in my room, a huge 10 db peak at 100 hz then bass dropped like a rock. They say bass below 2-300 hz is room dependant, but all the other 'full range' speakers i've had down here reach at least 60 hz. 

I brought the kanta 3 home because I really liked the mid and high fq's smooth and detailed presentation and their ability to play old rock recordings without harsh highs I used to expect from focal speakers. If you're using a sub or have a bass friendly room they're great.

I have 802 D3’s and can say that everything dave_b said about them is 100% true. Funny how you really can describe how a speaker sounds in words. 

There are a lot of great speakers with different designs which cover a wide array of listener sensibilities.  How each are utilized and matched with the end users equipment and room add yet another level of sonic variability to the equation.  Knowing how best to utilize any given transducer for maximum benefit to any particular audiophile is the key!  Far too many brands get labels from certain sectors of the audio community as sounding a particular way, under any circumstance.  Most speakers require appropriately matched gear and environments.  Having actually owned quite a variety of speakers with a broad range of electronics gives me a slight edge in identifying some key aspects of certain brands, but results and expectations are always a moving target.
