I also own a pair of Matrix 801 S3 and am considering to buy N802s. I agree with Wisec that I think I will miss that extra bass. I am thinking about having 802s in front and keeping my faithful matrix 801s in the back driven by a two channel poweramp. What do you think?
B&W N802 compared to 801 Matrix S3
I have a pair of B&W Matrix 801 S3 driven by a pair of Threshold T400 in mono. I also have a pair of B&W N803 in a different system diven by a Threshold S550e.
I like the mid range and highs of the N803 better than the 801 Matrix. The notes are more clear and control, transparent and with more air.
Because of my expereince with the N803 I am thinking in replacing my 801 Matrix but I wonder who the N802 compare against to the 801 Martix in bass? I love the bass of my 801 Matrix and would not like to loose it.
Any experiences or recommendations???
Thanks,
