G'day,
Currently in negotiation with my B&W dealer to get 803 + HTM1.
I thought I might be able to strike a good deal with the impending release of the new 800 series, but he reckons that Aussie B&W dealers aren't getting any of the new stock until May/June. That kinda undercuts my bargaining position.
Anyway, I've got two nagging doubts that I hope someone here can help clear up:
Thoughts on the above appreciated.

Anyway, I've got two nagging doubts that I hope someone here can help clear up:
- I'm thinking the 805 for rears (not really into the SCM1s), but I'm wondering if these are really necessary. Can I get away with 705s instead? My main interest is music (about 80%), so surrounds are not a great priority, which is why I'm a bit unsure about going the expense of the 805s.
- Part of me still thinks I should wait for the new 800 release. I'm thinking that the new S805s, which are supposedly just as good if not better than the current Signature 805s, might be a wiser option. I'd be giving up the bass extension of the 803, but gaining extra detail and clarity (at least, that's my impression of the current Signature 805s). Would anyone recommend getting the 803s now, instead of the new 805s (or new 804s)?
Thoughts on the above appreciated.
