Get rid of the McIntosh and use a better matching amp.. McIntosh only have design and their pretty lights going for them, but the sound of McIntosh is to my ears real bad with B&W. Get a seriously big Krell and enjoy glorius sound no matter what B&W it is powering.

Just had the wrong amp nothing else. I run an enormous Krell amp on my 802D3's that has 2×3000 watts available and there is no sharpness at All. Running McIntosh or similar will sound sharp cause it is a bad bad match for any B&W.

I'll just take the Tannoy Arden mk1 for a much much lower price and pair with a good tube amp🎶🤑

If you had a choice between the 800d2 and 800d3 which would you prefer?

The 802D3 sounds less balanced, more focused on the highs. It is much more transparent in the mids. Pair the D3 with water amplification to counteract this, then the combination is better than anything a D2 can do. If you prefer a warmer sound, take the D2.

What do you think? 800 D3 or 802 D4? I can have them for almost the same price, the 802 D4s are a bit more expensive but they are new, the D3s are 3 years old and used. I have a room of approx. 22 m2, acoustically modified, mostly used as a home cinema, sometimes with stereo music. What is your advice?

D4 is significantly improved design. If the room is not massive the 802 will be the better choice than the older 800.

@@Tobeit OK thanks now I have 803 D2 in front and my friend has 800 D2 and I love it that sound they produce. But I read, that new D4 sounds different from the old D2 or D3. It is true ? When I love the sound of our BWs I will not be disappointed with new D4 ?

What's a good cable the speakers? Is transparent a good cable

Transparent is a good choice. Running a pair of Ultra's on my 802 and is so far the best cables I've heard or tested. For Interconnects I would choose something else like Purist Audio Design which sounds way better with much more clarity and detail than Transparent.
