This is a two-way monitor speaker that will never be described as boxy or plain. At $8,500/pair, plus $1,250 for the dedicated stands, you’d expect the Bowers & Wilkins 805 D4 to be at least a little bit suave, but this a classy and dynamite presentation.
In it we get to see how the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System works and how it was designed, to deliver the best sound possible. To be more precise, you’ll be getting 30 speakers in
For the new range Bowers & Wilkins have seen fit to make the 803 more like an 802; in fact, it is essentially a compact version of that model with a smaller Turbine head containing a 130mm Continuum mid above two 180mm bass drivers. The 802 on the other hand has a 152mm mid and 203mm bass drivers. The odd thing is that the old 802 Diamond I have decided to upgrade to floor-standing speakers from bookshelves instead. I am considering buying the new 2019 Bowers & Wilkins 603. According to B&W the recommended amp power for these speakers is 30W-200W at 8 ohm unclipped. I currently own a Marantz PM-5005 integrated amp generating 40W per channel at 8 ohm.
