SOLD: B&W Nautilus 805s
« on: 6 Sep 2015, 11:45 pm »
Selling a gorgeous pair of B&W 805s Monitor Speakers finished in black ash. Reviews abound, so I'll not elaborate here. Suffice it to say, these speakers are everything the reviews say - wonderful extended highs, outstanding full midrange, and surprisingly powerful bass for their size. They are also simply stunning visually - the brushed metal accents of the tweeter housings and the black enclosures make for a very modern presentation. These were some of the very few speakers my wife actually liked the appearance of. I have had the pleasure of owning some of the finest monitor speakers available - Revel, Wilson, Raidho, etc - and these 805s are among my favorites. Extremely well balanced and very easy to drive and listen to.

These have BRAND NEW factory tweeters installed, factory jumpers, grills, and port plugs. I have the original B&W shipping carton and bought new foam inserts, which I consider absolutely necessary for safe shipping.

Speakers are in excellent condition. They are in a smoke and pet free home and have always been kept covered when not in use.

That's fascinating.  But I can't figure where you are.

Sorry... I am in Portland, Oregon.  I just updated my profile to display this information.  I'm willing to ship - purchased new styrofoam packaging inserts from B&W for this (was somewhat shocked at the cost, but didn't want to risk damage in transit).

I have a pair of 805 signatures that I bought as demos a few years ago....I wanted the boxes for them and was floored when told of what the cost was .....  :o

B&W is VERY proud of their styrofoam and cardboard!
