In this episode, David debriefs Mike on a recent visit to B&W's HQ, where he compared the company's seminal 801 D4 with the new 801 D4 Signature version. It was a very interesting experience to hear this brute of a high end speaker, and hints at the shape of the forthcoming 801 D5. And it raises the question about what constitutes "the best speaker in the world", as the new Signature is certainly a candidate for the job!
Each episode of Hi-Fi Riff features Mike and David's unedited, unexpurgated views about all manner of weird and wonderful hi-fi designs. Business executive Mike has a wealth of knowledge from previous hi-fi retail experience, and David has written about hi-fi for thirty years. Now Editor-in-Chief of StereoNET, he's picked up a few things along the way.
