    Internal wiring of 800 series

    Hi,

    Has anyone had the internal wiring upgraded in their 800 series speakers? I know the 800D uses highend wiring, but the 803D/S and below doesn't.

    Was thinking of getting all the internals done. Lex from cat cables could probally supply the wiring.

    I believe that anything you get from changing the inner cables will be loose with the soldering, It is hard to get a good quality home made solder.
    Just keep your hands out of your speakers, it is the same cable, as it is the same cable of the jumpers supplied with both 800 and 803!

      I allways thought the inside of the 800series was purely made of matrix enforcement, but according to the following pictures there's foam all over the place. Wasn't the cabinet suposed to absorbe all kind of reflections?

      I've searched...

      by RebelMan
      Several posts around the forum got me thinking about the popularity of the different B&W series of speakers. I believe of the three primary series (600, 700 and 800) the 600 series is by far the most popular. While the 800 series is reserved for the hi-end esoteric the 600 series is the entry...

      Want to get a new car and need to put away some money towards a down payment. Thinking of selling my 800 series and dropping back to the 600 series and using the difference towards my down payment.

      by nick.h
      Does anyone know the awg thickness of the internal wiring for the 800 series? I noticed the bi-wire connector that comes with the speakers is about 12-14awg. Is it copper? Or do they use silver?

      What is the brand of internal wiring in the B&W 800 Series?
      by SoundEngine355
      Does anyone know the brand of internal wiring in the 800 Series? I know they use the same cables from the 805s to the 800D. They look about 14AWG and might be a copper silver coated cable.

      Any ideas?

      Heres an example from the B&W 803D:
