B&W is the best speaker company
Good yes but best? Not a chance!
In the late 80s I was in a studio and they were trying 801s from B & W and KEF 107s. The 107s were clearly more defined in the lower range and could really handle the lower registers the FM resolution 801 amps were throwing them.
The single vented 12" driver was not as tight as the isobarik 10s in each 107 bass bin.
The 801's tweeters sounded better on the modified CJ Premier 5Bs (yes a valve amp) but the Mr. Fincham knew the shortcomings of a single cloth dome and this was addressed in the second revision of the 107.
They were amazing speakers.
