Are the 805s really the best stand mount speakers in the world?? I want to upgrade from my 602 s3´s but I don´t know if it´s worth paying that extra??
Can someone give me some advice please? :T

Can't say they are the best in the world, but a friend got a pair about 8 months ago and I have to say they blew me away. I'm running 803s and I was amazed how good they sound for their size. -
The best....who knows. I've had mine 9 months and they are all I expected and then some. Recomended.Comment

As I think I mentioned in another thread, I compared my 805s to the 804s, and found I liked the 805s better... They packed plenty of bass, and the highs were clearer, sharper (some may call these speakers a bit bright). I think they are wonderful, and certainly the best bookshelf speakers I've ever heard... What I haven't yet done is compare to the 803s and above...Originally posted by ac81017Comment

I'm thinking about buying a b&w 805's but I don't know which amplifier choose.
Do you think the Rotel RMB-1075 is enough?
Will I notice a big improvement with the RMB-1095?
Thank youComment

It is safe to say that the 805 is the best standmount speaker in B&w lineup. There might be others you prefer in a different brand. When it comes to stereo there is no such thing as the best in the world. . . Personally I prefered the 703 to the 805. But that was me, and I was only interested in 2-channel sound. The 805 will be a big upgrade from your 602 IMOComment

Actually I prefer the sound of the signature 805 to the new 805S. I've owned both.
To say the 805S is the best stand mount speaker in the world is just plain wrong. It may very well be the best at 2500 dollars and under. But there are some incredible 10,000 dollar stand mount speakers that crush the 805S. Let's not forget B&W's own silver signature at 8 grand a pair. Still, according to some, a very top notch speaker.
The 805S is VERY good. There are others much better.Comment

First of all I'd like to say hi to everyone on the B&W thread.
I've had my B&W 805S speakers for 11 months now and have loved every minute of owning them. I have upgraded my amp and cd player and the sound improved even more. I have recently changed my interconnects for kimber... -
HI All,
I’m in the midst of an experiment. The HT system I am currently putting together is for my bedroom. It’s now mostly finished and I must say it sounds very good. Here is the essence of the experiment.
Can I use a good bookshelf speaker (the 805S) and a good subwoofer... -
I’m breaking in a brand new pair of 805S’ I’ve got on demo from a local dealer. Been itching to compare them to the Nautilus 805s that have seen service in my room for the past 16 months.
Set the 805S’ up on stands last night, did not change location or positioning from the Nautilus... -

Question,

I'm undecided on which direction I will go next. Should I buy a second set of 805S and a second ASW825 or...
