Well, I spent several hours today comparing the BW/ML's. the first thing I noticed, which was almost immediately, was the deep, extended bass! the next thing was the imaging, people talk about "holographic" imaging, but these puppies really do it! The clarity and musicality is just superb. The one thing that the 802's do have is that tremendous mid-range, but I think the Summits are a pretty equal match. but that bass and sound-staging, and clarity! Whew, especially on acoustic instruments, piano, guitar, oh, and I almost forgot. The BW's tend to be fairly "trebly" and on some passages the high's can sound "brittle", but there was none of that with the Summits. The highs were "clear as a bell". I waited to post because I wasn't sure if I was going to be a "regular" here on ML, but, as they say, "Dude", Count me in!! The music is back!! Don't get me wrong, the 802's are superb speakers, but the Summits are better, definitely worth the investment. Tomorrow I test comparing the Pass Labs X250 to my X350. Then after my decsion is made, I'm going to post some pics. Bye, gotta go listen to some music! jb
