Peter, this is the link. The review is in Dutch, but you'll be able to find a way around that for sure. https://hifi.nl/artikel/30346/Wereld...eo-Center.html

Thanks, bart! A very helpful review--it definitely makes the case that the upgrade is worth it. I look forward to hearing the 805 and 804 in a month or so

Great to see that reviews are flowing already.
I'll be auditioning the 801D4's soon, so I'm refraining from reading any reviews until after I've heard them, in order to avoid any preconceptions. |

Does anyone actually think the 802D3 has deficiencies that require an 802D4? I’m sure they have improved the speaker but I am thinking most people are not even maxing out the D3 they have in terms of components and cabling.

Stil no mention of new D4 Subwoofers… I’ll be disappointed if they are still square boxes that don’t match their 800 Series curves - bring back the ASW825…

British are first to review.....
Hi-Fi News (October issue) has reviewed the 801d4. The edition can be purchased via Zinio https://www.zinio.com/au/hi-fi-news-m1303 |

"Deficiencies...require?" None. But then again we could say the same about the 700s, so I don't think this is the right question. The D4 objective is to make awesome speakers even more awesome

I’m auditioning the 802d4 back to back/side by side against the 802d3 this 9/30.
