    Now make your speakers with an adjustable crossover where you can put in your own voicing and then a flat response as well for the rest of us.

    Brilliant, I have four pairs of B&W speakers, and still have my 1986 DM 330’s that have never missed a beat in almost 40 yrs! Says a lot for the quality. I am going to buy a pair of 702 S3 soon as my lounge room speakers and give the kids my 330’s to party with. Great speakers.

      Glenn... same here, my original 1978 DM5's are my rear surrounds and working fine. My main 5 channels are all Diamonds, and diamonds are an audiophiles best friend.

    I have now concluded I’m not the kind of customer this company targets.

      I would be if I had $50,000 for 2 speakers lol. Not to mention the 805's for surround and HTM81 center channel. What I would do do just own the 801's.

    They should also focus on good quality reasonably priced bluetooth speakers.
