    Will size matter

    I really want to get the 802D, but space maybe an issuse as I posted in a earlier post. So having said that would anyone know any advantage to maybe buying the new 803ds vs buying the 802D. I assume the new 803DS are suppsoe to have better technology in them, so does anyone know if they will sound as good as an old pair of 802D.

    Thanks

    I don't think anyone can say until they audition them side by side, which as far as I know has not been done yet. Given that the 802D is not made anymore it may never be done. I think unless the test is done back to back in the same room with the same equipment everything will be subjective.

    My general feeling is that the 802D should still be an improvement over the 803Di for mose. That said, room has a lot to do with it. If you don't have the space you might be better off with a smaller speaker..
