    Good time yesterday

    Well I went to a B&W presentation yesterday organized with the Criteria ppl up in FT. Lauderdale Florida, anyways had a chance to meet some really nice people. I met the President of Criteria really nice guy and he was able to demonstrate the 800 and the 802 series for me in stereo setup and 5.1, well him and a B&W representative that I dont recall his name right now and goes on this forum by annonimouse..., I have to say I was really really impressed by the sound of the 800's they are more clear sounding thanmy 705's, but the biggest diffrence is how fuller the sound feels, it does not feel thin like mine hence the speaker size... , sound stage was quite bigger than mine, now this could be due to the fact the room was pretty small, so they werent set apart much, overall there is a really big diffrence, and I do plan on aquiring these in the next 5 mths or so together with some classe equpiment, nothing big just wanted to comment on my expierience.

      Thanks for sharing Juan. As an 800D and Classé Delta owner myself, I find the combination quite blissful too. :B Not only were the two brand names voiced in perfect harmony with one another they were stylishly created by the same designer, Morton Warren.
