800d3 now out on website!
800d3 is now out, officially on the BW website! Not much heavier than the 802d3 which is a little odd... But the drivers are humongous looking in the reverse cabinet.
Looking good, wonder how it sounds. |

Looks ugly compared to the 802. Those 10-inch drivers simply look out of proportion to the cabinet. I also think the 802 will sound more balanced in the average room. It's a bit disappointing that nothing new was attempted with the 800. It is simply a bigger speaker with huge drivers.

I believe it's 30k, could be a little off.

It is.
And no discounts for now so it is a true 30. |

You need to move on to a different dealer then, any not willing to discount are just gouging you.

My first visual impression was of two big lips on the front of the body. Or like someone typing in CAPS. Looking forward to additional reviews. I thought someone one here was invited to a hearing in Munich last night.

Interesting 800D3 is .20 inches higher, .90 inches wider and .69 inches deeper.
In person I can see this being a more proportional speaker than originally thought. 200 lbs is still a very heavy speaker. |
