Well, I just had a very revealing run in with the 803's slightly bigger brother. Our latest album was just digitally mastered on set of 802's with a Velodyne 12-inch sub. The guy does soundtracks (King Kong etc..) so I guess he needs the sub for that kind of stuff. To make a long story short. I left his studio with a serious case of B&W lust. I've been looking for 803's ever since but I don't think I can really justify the purchase. You you lucky dog, you're gonna git my dream speaker first. Ah'm a hatin' on ya!!!! LOL. One vote for Mr. Bowers and Wilkens.
