    I'm in Big! Nautilus805/803/Rotel setup

    Well after spending most of my evenings reading posts on this site I finally made the plunge.
    RSX 1055
    RMB 1075
    Fronts- Nautilus 803s
    Rears - Nautilus 805s
    I have not used all of my budget yet, so I am looking at getting a Nautilus center channel and not sure yet on the sub. I only have about 2k left for my budget. I could squeeze more but hell my wife's pockets have some limits.
    What I really wanted to say was Mr. Pratt your insightful dialogue helped in making my equipment decision. I am still in the learning phase and I have much more to learn. I just needed the equipment to start trying some of the things you talk about on this board. For me you have been instrumental and I just wanted to say thank you.

    Now for the newbie issue. The most perplexing thing for me now is the cable connecting amp/receiver. My dealer let me borrow some for two weeks. I have something called "transparent." I am just not sure what is the best product to use to interconnect the amp/receiver to power my front speakers. Using the amp for the 803s and the receiver for the 805s surrounds. My dealer is suggesting some 300 buck cables which seem kind of high.

    As for the surround I was going to use 14 gauge cable from home depot as many suggested here. My dealer will charge 4.00 a foot for the same, attaching banana fittings. I have no clue of what cable to use for my 803s. Nonetheless, should look elsewhere for these cables.

    cheers dale :LOL: P.S. Damn I love this system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Attention Dr. Lex, Dale and his fine system are in need of that final touch...ie interconnects. He'll be feverish til he gets his hands on some Cat or Quantums.

          I like that!!! Just make sure you read the little insert on how to connect them. Very easy, but I know of at least one unfortuate fool who tore open the box and wondered why the things didn't connect the way my others did, until I...I mean that fool...read the instructions. ops:

              Nautilus 803 power amplifier
              by sorpe
              Hello,
              I'm about to buy a Nautilus 803S as a first mile in my audio project. However, I do not really have in mind any amplifier that can honorably drive the pair.

              I have good inputs about rotel and mc252.

              Open for sugestions. (70% classic, the rest rock/pop, ) ...

              Upgrading from 805S to 803S
              by texasbwfan
              Good Morning,

              It may be time for my 805S to go. My new home has a significantly larger family room with ceilings that are 16 ft. tall. The room is also twice as big as the room in my former home. As you can imagine, the 805S are having difficulty providing enough sound for the space....

              B&W History - 803 & 804?
              by Bluespower
              With the exception of the diamond tweeter in the 803, how many years have they been making the 803S & the 804S as we know them today? I guess what I'm trying to ask, is if I see a second hand pair, how many years old can they be and still be the same speaker in the showroom today?
