What can I say ?  These original B&W 800 Diamonds are just so right in every way !


There is a Reason B&W is used and was used for more mastering on more famous recordings than any other speaker made ! ! !

Do I  need to remind you that Abby Road used B&W for all their mastering.

Please note, Weinhart Design is an authorized B&W Dealer and in the pictures you will see our B&W 800 D-3 next to them.  These are the first Diamond version and are delightful.

Effortless immediately comes to mind. Dynamic...yup. Tight, yet powerful bass...in spades. Palpable, lifelike midrange... clearly one of the best speakers I've heard regardless of price.

These are in excellent, super clean condition (like new & likely the best pair to be found.


Original shipping boxes however prefer local sale.
