Default 804D3's in the house!!

That’s a nice speaker. There’s a guy from Germany that posts on Instagram who makes custom outriggers for that speaker which are quite beautiful. I think he goes by hifibassti.

I was going to buy the 804 D3 and then heard the D4 was coming out so I waited. I wish I hadn’t because I’m not a fan of the design change and therefore will not be buying a pair of 804 D4’s. You’re lucky to find a nice pair of 804 D3’s, enjoy.

Thank you for the recommendation, I just sent Bassti a message.

Beautiful speakers. Congrats. Given my small room, these are something along the
lines that I'm planning to replace my current speakers. That and a new 2-channel
amp would do it. Enjoy them!

He was very responsive, so I ordered these. Thanks again for the recommendation, I hope they look as good as they do in this pic.

Very nice. Did you upgrade the feet or are they the standard ones on the VPI?

Apparently my stands have been stuck in Chicago USPS Customs since 04/07 with no update since. I wonder if I'll ever get them.
