I have read all the comparisons between the N802 and the new 803D's. What I can determine, most (not all) feel the N802 have not been beat by the 803D's. Each speaker has it's strong point, but niether is the clear winner. IMO the speaker with the best midrange/tweeter combo should win (for a number of reasons). So far, this has not been the case.
What remaining stock of N802's are now leaving the backrooms and the showroom floors. In my area, prices are reduced 20% for demo's which have been on the floor from 2-5 years. IMO speaker's in the showroom receive 2 to 4 times more play than at my house. Meaning these speakers are well used.
I believe it shouldn't be to difficult to get a 10% discount on the 803D's. So the price difference is about $800 in favor of the N802's. I'm at a point in my life where I'm ready to make a "life time" speaker purchase.
Question 1: do you think the N802 is every bit as good as the 803D's?
Question 2: Would it be better to buy an unused 803D vs a well used N802?
Thanks for your input!
