I wish they would hurry up and announce something, I am in the market now and torn between buying now or waiting...

Buy now or wait is the question I'm facing.

I do expect improvements, but I don't think they will change the overall design dramatically as its their flagship product line and a big play in their marketing.

Wish more information was available, would help me decide on a pair of speakers

Patience can be a good thing.

I'm hoping that the press release for the new range will create some good deals on the existing diamond series.

A pair of 804 Di's as rear channels for my HT would be very nice.

B&W might come out with carbon fiber woofers to address different frequency ranges with diamond midrange and tweeter

I doubt the pricing will change much. With new higher pricing, the used prices will remain near same is my guess. Probably drop by 500-1000.

Not long now, Sept/Nov.

Stock is low at the distributor, stores are selling the ex demo models.

These tired old ears probably wouldn't benefit from anything new so I'm content to remain blissfully ignorant of any marked improvement in sound quality coming from the new B&W lineup. This position will also apply to any other upgrades or tweaks that are out there. I need a nap now so bye y'all.

Just unboxed my new pair of 802 Diamonds, sipping on some Pinot Noir listening to Diana Krall... Giddy up!
