Actually, having listened to an 800 series Natilus...again (this time the 802) I have to say that the criticisms are right on the money. These speakers did not sound good at all and drove me from the room after only about 10 minutes of "listening". The speakers are not well integrated with each driver standing out like a sore thumb and in its own vertical layer. I have heard this now with all their top models. Most companies have gone away from Kevlar because it has some nasty breakup modes and seems to add quite a bit of its own sound (Remember the Focal kevlar tweeters? Horrible sound).
