    802d spikes installation

    Hi,

    I've just installed the spikes on my 802d speakers. With the help of my wife, it was really straightforward. As I heard many users complaining about the difficulty of the spikes installation, I just want to explain some tips for doing it very easily.

    First I reused the original sagex packaging to put around the bottom of the speaker; this greatly helps to flip the speaker on the side. I also used a dick pillow plus a duvet cover to deposit the speaker. This avoid scratching the speaker side and helps for damping.

    The procedure is illustrated on the attached picture. So do not hesitate any more to install spikes.

    Good luck. Ligald

      Rubber VS Spikes for 802D
      by rompower
      Hey all!

      I was wondering if anyone experienced rubber vs spikes on the 802D? Any thoughts?

      I'm wondering if I switch to spikes but I fear I'll destroy the carpet if I want to play a little bit with positioning... Should I buy some granit plate to put under the speaker...

I mean spikes worth of $400 is something unheard even by standarts of russian rip-off Hi End trade. We're not talking STANDS here, right? What are these...

      Does any one know where can I get spikes for 802D?
      by Aldo
      I'm trying to get the original speaker spikes for the 802D, I live in Mexico and the only dealer here is not able to get them, or doesn't want to. Does any one knows where can I find them in the US?
      Thanks!

      Spikes/802D's
      by Rob72
      Hi Guys,

      Well after much thought I have decided to pick up a new pair of 802D's rather than a used pair of Nautilus 802's. I have not received them yet but am pretty excited!

      My question is has anyone placed spikes on their 802D's? How much of an improvement have you noticed?...

      Hi,

      Does anyone have some experience or some feedbacks about the matching between Parasound amplifiers and B&W 802d?

      I'm considering the Parasound A21 stereo power amp (2x250W) which was reviewed several time as a "Must have". It has the ability to provide...
