Thank you for the upload. I have been able to enjoy this exceptional speaker several times. I have to say, it has more than swept me away every time. It blew me away. You can argue about the look, but not about the sound this speaker emits.
I had a pair of B&W DM70s like the white pair behind but in Walnut.Wonderful sounding hybrid electrostats.Makes me sad that I sold them.On some music they are the best.
lol.....Yea I guess they could just build a limited run of 10 pairs. I think Aston Martin ended up doing a similar thing when a wealthy Arab prince wanted a road legal version of the Vulcan.
i am sure that i would prefer the original 800n to the later D - D4 versions. It's sad that those speakers need so much power that they dont pair well with tubes. Especially considering the price drop they had... It's an incredible speaker for the 5k range it is in today. But yes, you have to feed them with Behemoths of transistors in a/b, as far as i had the chance to test the smaller iterations. Enjoy!
I actually didn't realise they still made them , i thought production had ended decades ago . They must be serious money now as they are very labour intensive
Listening to this on my Px8. Amazing headphones, undoubtedly the best purchase I ever made. I also use THX Spatial Audio to set my own EQ. I have not heard them distort even once, and never before have I heard audio so clear in my life. Each and every detail so clear, soundstage so wide, sound separation on point. B&W know what they are doing. Initially I held Bose in high regard, mostly because my Dad was impressed by the 901. But Bose has lost their engineering prowess imo. B&W is where engineering meets form and function. My next purchase will be the Formation bar and bass.
Honest answer? Believe me, there are worlds in between. There are worlds between the Diamond 800 D3 and the Nautilus. I don't know what Amplifier you have in use. I heard the Nautilus with the Devialet Expert 1000 Pro fully class D amps. It was an another own world. I had from the first moment tears in my eyes and pure goosebumps. I will never forget this presentation. The problem was the price for the whole presentated setup. The other thing is, since this presentation is that hardly anything else comes so close.
@@btsr2553 Wow. I’d love to hear them. My first amp I had with the Matrix 800s was a Krell FPB 600. ( All bass). Now I have the Audio Research Ref 750s. Sounds phenomenal. Also using the Audio Research Ref 6SE pre amp. And Krell B&W BAFs. (Bass alignment filters ). 2- Balanced.
Doing 10 hz is no bass ? From a 3 meter long horn construction ? I have been in a room with them playing , sadly not in listening position 😢 but bass was well at hand. As the shop owner said : “ driving 10 hz demands a well powered amp , its either boom or boooooom “. Perhaps we could ask B&W to build a Nautilus subwoofer?
@@janskovgaard8906 The speakers were driven with Classe amplifiers, 2 stereo 2X100 W 16 Oh, plus one stereo Classe 2X250W 16 Ohm and two large mono blocks Classe 350W 16 Ohm that drove the largest speakers. The preamplifier and CD-player were also Classe. All 8 amplifiers were driving them and despite that, there was not enough bass in the room. Even when we were looking for a CD with the most bass, it didn't work properly either. Only when we started playing John Lee Hooker's CD The Best Of Friends did the bass sound appear.

I'm absolutely not a B&W fan yet i absolutely like those. They're just so different!
LOVE the finish of this version. Thank you Laurence! Still Iconic!
Iconic speaker. Thanks
Exceptional

I'm a fan of Dynaudio loudspeakers.
But one day I heard these boxes, and I regretted not being able to afford them. They're fantastic.
Good music!
Fibonnaci shape cannot go wrong. Its just something different hearing this
Amazing
I wonder how these speakers would sound, made from large block of aluminum block, using a CNC machine to cut it out?
Would make more (manufacturing) sense to cast it, rather than finding a way to machine a shape such as that.
@@StereoNET you probably could use a sand 3-D printer, to print the interior, to cast aluminum over it. Then just break it out when you’re done.

Gorgeous speakers
Nice to look at and great too listen
But too expensive for me

Ever drop one of those?

I wish i were rich... those would be one of the first things i would buy.
i'd wish to have 4 kidneys... that thing is sooo beautiful😍
I want to buy a pair to listen to and a pair to store in a humidity and temperature controlled vault.
Chông nó thật đẹp ❤❤❤❤
Can yall finish the BW PI7 wireless headphones first? Paid 300 for connectivity flaws...? Half the time you use it, it wakes to buzzing. Hmmm.
What is the "box" material. What is the shell made of?
It's funny how hard it is to find this info?
Anyone?
Never got that form, was it supposed to be an inner ear???
Sound of head banging on wall.....It is based on the Nautilus shell.
PERBACCO!!! A che serve?
The Nautilus was always a proof of concept design. B&W always said the original Nautilus 801/802s were sonically better speakers.
I have the 800 Matrix. How does that compare to the Nautalis?

Its an ingenius design. Super low diffraction. What you hear in most other speakers is the diffraction
The Matrix are great for massive soundstages, like orchestra. The Nautilus simply shines at every dimension.
Now they just need a carbon fibre skin finish!
why I play the lottery, these are!
I think it deserves a facelif
it's timeless!
ok ok, just because you have British accent just take my wallet..
This speaker has an interesting and beautiful design, but unfortunately it does not sound good. That speaker sounds like it has no bass at all.
Were you there?

And at 100,00$ it's a steal.
見た目だけ
when designer lead the engineer, bulshit speakers.
PERBACCO! Anzi perbacchino da non confondere con tabacchino che è tutt'altra cosa
With only 21 comments I'd say it's not that important...
You hi ear them hey?
Scary price tag..$$$$$$$
Hi ear better speakers this is only marketing.
