I say most people cannot HEAR the difference, but they might FEEL the difference.

If I am sitting in my HT room looking at some B&W 800 Diamonds and big bad Bryston amps that give me that warm fuzzy feeling, I am going to FEEL the difference.

Count me in!

Hehe. Never know. R2D2 might have been the muse for the B&W 800’s design.

I also love the significant curvature of the cabinet, instead of the so-often squarish boxy speakers. I assume the building process of the B&W 800’s tremendous curvature takes significantly more time and effort than all the other boxy cabinets - all the wood bending that occurs.

It reminds me of my Study Room, which has a rounded section, instead of a rectangular room.
