They really do look awesome in real life...

These aren't mine - unfortunately.

Someone I know who's a reviewer phoned me yesterday because he needed some help getting them into his sound room.

I'll have a private audition soon when he's clocked up some running-in time.

By now, you think there would be a pre-review on the 801/802 D4's. I cannot find anything.

Last week, there was an extensive review on the 805s, 804s, 802s and 801s on a Dutch site.
The reviewer, not a B&W fan until now, was very enthusiastic!

Cannot find it, even with a handful of various search terms. If you are uncomfortable with a link, will you post the name of the site? Thanks
