ka7niq,the 801's really are that good and I miss them, but, you omit to acknowledge that their studio monitoring heritage means that they only sound truly 'right' (to my ears, at least) when they are playing LOUD... and therein lies their greatest weakness; in the domestic setting.
After a hard day's labour and way past late... thru' to the early hours... 90db+ takes me back at the speed of light, to my teenage years and my dear ol' short tempered Pa, screaming "turn it down" followed by numerous expletives...
Enjoy,
