    Older 800 Series - Where are they thread

    Now that the 800 series has moved to the Di series, it is becoming much harder to find the older models. I am sure, like me, many people are still needing certain speakers to complete their setup and aren't interested in the Di series. I have found it difficult to find an HTM3S in rosenut, but someone must know where one is...

    I have made this thread so that people may post where they know of new 800 series speaker for sale at stores. Please post the speaker model, color and store name and location. I suggest not to post used speakers on Audiogon since these tend to sell fast and everyone can look there by themselves.

    I hope this will help people find what they need.

      You might want to check with your local retailer to see if he can order them for you. That's what I did to get my HTM4 a couple months ago after purchasing the last pair of 804's they had on sight. My sense of it was that there are distribution warehouses scattered around North America that may still have some left. At the time I got my center speaker, my dealer told me there were eight of them remaining in the warehouse. If you can find what your looking for, I would ask for at least a 20% discount.

        There is only one B&W warehouse in the US and it's in Buffalo. There is basically nothing left at B&W except maybe a few DS8s, SCMSs, and a couple of HTM1Ds the last time I checked and that was a week or so ago. Most of the inventory that is out there is in dealers stores not at B&W.
