The way I look at it, I was very happy back then still very happy with them now.

To answer the OP's original question, we've owned a pair of 802Ns and a pair of 805Ns since 2004. Much like oneofew wrote, we were ecstatic when we heard the 802Ns in the dealer sound room and we're ecstatic every time we hear them now. We've heard the newer 800-series models...and we've even had the original Nautilus design auditioned for us...but we've yet to hear anything that warranted selling our 802Ns and taking out a second to purchase the newer B&Ws.
