    Replace 802D2 with 805D3?

    Hi all, I am contemplating replacing the 802D2s with some 805D3s. I have a small room and two SVS SB13Us so I was thinking I may get better results with a speaker that doesn't need as much space to get the best out of. Has anyone tried this sort of thing? I am going for a demo on Saturday with a view to then having a home demo if I think the idea has potential.

      I demoed the 805 and 804 today and I am certain there isn't any mileage in the plan above. The 804 is a maybe though so I am at some point getting a home demo with them to see how they do.

              Price for preowned 802D2's
              by mpauline
              I sold my 803D2's last year and kept my HTM2D. I am looking to buy some 802D2's. Is $10800 Canadian a good price for a preowned set? I could also maybe try and find some new ones however I think the best I can do is probably a 20% discount. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

              B&W 802D2 versus B&W 800D2
              by skwitko
              I've changed my B&W 802 D2 for a B&W 800 D2 one year ago, so the burn-in period were totally fullfilled (like I did with the 802 D2). My electronics, cables, listening room and speaker position are exactly the same. The room is 13 by 20 feet. The speakers are approximately 1.6 feet from the...

              There were several rooms setup with demos running every half hour. The first...

              How much off MSRP for 802DI dealer demo?
              by SPACEMANRICK
              I have ordered my 802DI speakers from my dealer but found out yesterday unfortunately that they are on back order and should be here in Vancouver hopefully about 1 month. Before I ordered my new 802DI speakers my dealer had suggested that I could buy his demo units at a discounted price.
