The measurements from AV Hub shed some light on the subjective differences between the 802D3 and the 800D3.

I've attached measurements of both (800D3 on left), revealing that the 800D3 is tuned very differently, and is actually more similar to the 800D2 in the bass, with the port tuning around 26Hz. OTOH, the 802D3 alignment is lower Q, and the port is tuned lower too, meaning that there's much less energy in the 30-50Hz region.

Measurements suggest that the 802D3 is designed to make use of boundary reinforcement, whereas the 800D3 will work best in a larger room where it's also further away from room boundaries.
