Could you please help me in choosing the better option? I can buy either of these two speakers but new 804 diamond cost by €1.150 more than second-hand 803D. What would be your advice?
B&W 804 diamond or previous 803D?

Room and equipment will be a factor, but all things equal I would probably go for the older 803D at that pricing.. I have had a chance to listen to these back to back in the same room and same equipment. Here were my thoughts...
Not sure if anyone has noticed. The B&W website was updated sometime this week. I can't say I like the new layout. If I did not know the 600 series existed I might not have found it. Also the CM7 is no longer shown as a current speaker. The CM8 is now in its place. We all knew this was coming, but the transition wasMain System:
B&W 801D
Emotiva USP-1 Pre-Amp
Chord SPM-650 Stereo Amp
Oppo BDP-105
Squeezebox Touch
Second System:
B&W CM7
Emotiva UMC-1
Emotiva UPA-2
Oppo BDP-83SE
Grant Fidelity DAC-09
