19 speakers with only 4,500 gently driven miles
 
I'm not a huge fan of the aesthetics of the D3 line. I'm very happy with my 803 D2s and have been considering them my last set of speakers.

But then I found this set of 19 attached to a 12-channel 1,400 watt amp in one very handsome case IMO. Based on the famed nautilus design, they feature spiral diffusion chambers to absorb reflected sound and reduce resonance.

Road trips to take the dogs hiking in New Mexico and Colorado should be a whole lot more enjoyable now.

Nice styling and I am sure the sound is amazing. Certainly much better that what Bose attempts to pass off as speakers.

Congrats on the new ride!

Ugh. You are so right. There are Bose speakers in my car's factory sound system and they're just awful.

Pecos, Latir and Columbine Hondo Wilderness in NM; mostly around Crested Butte in CO.

I'm in DFW area. B&W sound will now make the drive through west Texas more tolerable now.

Wow. 850 miles each way to Colorado?

Love the interior set-up detail & colour scheme.

I can never get comfortable sitting on the left-hand side of a car to drive it.:no:

I'm a menace when I'm driving in the USA, keep drifting onto the lefthand side of the road out of habit.:sigh:

This Volvo is at top of my list, along with the B&W package, when I replace my current lease next year.

Let us know how the sound is after you spend some with the car.
