Pros: Striking looks. Excellent drivers. Very clear hi and mid range.
Cons: Very Heavy. Front grilles are cheap and mountings break.
The Bottom Line: I am pleased with my purchase. Volume levels produced by this set of speakers will fill any good size room. Nothing I have heard produces clearer more defined sound.

| artnisson's Full Review: B&W Nautilus 802 |
I listen to a variety of music, including organ music. Very few speakers will fully address the lower notes and the dynamic range that a theater organ can generate. Horns of an orchestra have never sounded better. Guitars and every instrument seem to benefit from this new mid range driver technology. Not quite as much lower end as my older 801 matrix 2's. But the rest is a bit cleaner.
Vocals reach new levels of realism with these speakers. I think the increased height from my older 801's helps also.
I get compliments on the way the speakers look also. The foot print is not excessive for what they offer. The rollers on the bottom make placement easy.
Recommended:
Yes
Amount Paid (US$): 7500.
