Review 1 of 2 Summary: I picked these loudspeakers up because the used price was right. They retailed for 2500.00. After listening to these awesome babies I can honestly say im very, very impressed with these loudspeakers. Ive have Infinity RSB-1's. Acoustat 2 hybrid electrostatics. My roomie has Infinity Beta's, and a complete home theater with Meridian processor. We know what good sound is in this house! Im so impressed with these 802's that I can say there not leaving this house, and becoming my main speakers of choice. I have heard things in the music, I have never noticed with any loudspeaker, and I have owned more different types, and brands then the normal audiophile. I trade and swap, and sell constantly. These 802's however will remain in my collection permantly. I would highly recomend a high end sub with these. Bass extension below 50hz falls quickly. You cant do wrong by purchasing any B&W loudspeaker. They win awards yearly throughout there product line. Also, B&W's are used in over 80% of all classical music recording studios, and used in the final mix. They are also used in many of the worlds top recording studios for final mix because of there extreme accuracy.
Strengths: Midrange Clarity, Soundstage is wide, very detailed. Huge power handling with no break up. Articulation is incredible. Tight, quick, and punchy low end. Well protected against any damage to loudspeakers at high continuous output. Very detailed, and full even at very low output. Weaknesses: Quick roll off of below 50hz. Otherwise, none Similar Products Used: Ive owned many, many brands of high end loudspeakers.
