Description
Nautilus 804 ™ Floor-standing loudspeaker system Product Summary l The Nautilus 804 incorporates the design rigor of the larger speakers within the range at a more affordable price, whilst maintaining the acclaimed acoustics and looks. l The Nautilus 804 is probably the most living room-friendly loudspeaker in the range with its tall and slim design, which incorporates the Nautilus™ cabinet with the excellent quality veneer. l The technical features includes freestanding tweeter, surround-less Kevlar® midrange and tapered tubes for absorbing rearward output of mid and high frequencies. Reviews have included comments such as Extremely proficient, revealing and pleasing to both the eyes and ears.Tweeter on top: B&Ws Tweeter on top technology ensures that the sound remains focused and time-sensitive and that the stereo-image is presented with unparalleled three dimensional accuracy. Kevlar®: B&W developed and patented the method of using Kevlar® for loudspeaker cones to reduce unwanted standing waves. DuPont originally created Kevlar® for use in bulletproof vests. Flowport™: Golf ball aerodynamics theory points the way towards lower distortion reflex ports. Dimples improve the way the air flows over the surface of any object. In the case of reflex ports, they offer a significant improvement over simply flaring the port ends in reducing air flow turbulence at each end of the port; so you get less chuffing noise and less compression at high sound levels. Matrix™: The basic construction of nearly all loudspeakers is exactly the same panels of wood-based materials, bonded to form a rectangular box. B&W studied and evaluated how each aspect of cabinet behavior and the efficiency of various materials and construction methods affects sound. Soundstage reviewI think that the B&W Nautilus 804 is certainly a fine product. It has, for me, set new standards as to what I expect to hear from B&W in the future. The Nautilus 804s offer a composed and refined midrange, seductive highs, and an almost electrostatic-like coherence -- all in a compact enclosure. They can also grow with your system and reveal each change along the way. Like true thoroughbreds, they will exploit what they are given to work with. While the competition is stiff in the price category, with a number of high-quality speakers available, not many will exhibit the 804s well-voiced sonic mix, great looks, and manageable footprint that makes it ideal in small to medium-sized rooms.In the end, the B&W Nautilus 804 never failed to communicate to me, no matter what I was listening to -- Bach, Bob Marley, or Harry Connick. The essence of the music was always there....David Dowdell I am relisting these as the previous sale was not completed. These three speakers are a set, two B&W 804 Nautilus Tower speakers and one B&W Nautilus HTM1 Center Channel speaker. Pay the asking price and I will pay the shipping for the lower 48 States, you will be getting the speakers you see in the photos, shipped in the original manufacturer boxes.
