Expert review by : What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)

B&W 805 Diamond review

 

These B&W standmounters are indeed things of beauty, but we feel that for all their pros, they're much easier to admire than really love

Astonishing detail resolution and refinement ; weighty bass ; organic handling of dynamics ; great build and finish

Trades energy for sophistication ; only comes to life at higher volume levels

The babies of the 800 range are great, but they’re easier to admire than love

B&W 805S/HTM4S/ASW825 review

 

We adore these speakers and you will too - the B&Ws generate an extraordinarily coherent soundfield

Glorious integration and cohesion ; excellent detail ; the dynamics and bass will take your breath away… oh, and it looks quite nice, too

Expensive

Possibly the most complete speaker package around; as adept with music as it is with movies

B&W 805S review

 

Whether you listen to Prokofiev, the Prodigy or Prince, the 805Ss will serve you spectacularly well

Great all-rounders with crisp timing and a superb level of insight ; lovely build and finish

There are rivals that dig deeper in the bass

These Award-winning B&Ws are excellent-sounding speakers, with the impressive build quality to match
