[jonnyz]

$2900!

I have been thinking of going to 805s from CDM 9nt's. Today I came across a pair of mint n803 at a used audio store. I gave them a listen and they are sweet sweet sweet but kind of kills the no towers idea of going with the 805!

What to do?

I went through the same exercise a while ago! I compared 805/804/803 the outcome was undeniable that the 803 has a fantastic separation that blends sweetly to the middle of the listening circle. Has all the right elements for most musical sounds. Only thing is B&W 803 need is more power to drive efficiently to obtain the best out of them. The difference from a Dennon/Marantz/Blah Blah Blah to that of a Classe or in my case a PliniusSA250 opened up an amazing sense of sound. Some have gone down the Tube way only you can decide. If you have plenty in your Budget for good mid to hi end equipment then go for it. You wont be disappointed! After 2 years with mine, I'm not.
