Aerial 10t vs B&W 802

When i purchased my 10Ts i listened to the 801 in a different showroom and the 802 side by side with the 10T. I preferred the 10t over both the 801 and 802.To me the B+W's are not very good sounding. My dealer sold all his 10t's and the 802's were still standing in the showroom months later. JMHO

Like to add to my previous comments. Its not that the 802 sounded bad, but was lacking on the bottom end. The 802 is a better looking speaker in my opinion and might sound better with proper subs than without. The amps and pre that were used were the Pass X350 and Pre and Various Classe and Theta equip. The 801 were auditioned with a Krell FPB 300 and HT Standard, did not like the FPB300 and 801 at all. The Krell HT Standard and Krell 5ch amp had a good sound. Your better off in spending the time and travel and listen for yourself. We all have different taste, after all we are only human and this stuff is not cheap ---------> happy hunting

I have had the B&W 802's in my home for audition, but I prefer the sound of Aerial. I purchased the 10t for my audio only system 5 years ago and could not be more happy. For my second system used for home theatre and music I went with the Aerial 7 with a single 5 for the center. I don't think you can go wrong with Aerial and it's a great company to deal with. However, either would be a good choice and only your ears will know for sure.
