Hi.
I am using a 803 D3 since eight weeks now. It sounds better to me (coupled with a D400) as my WA Sasha 1 before. Overall very detailed and (with SAM) very good, deep, controlled and colourful bass.
As the room is not really big (4,5 x 7 meter) I am glad that the bass port is facing towards the floor. Less room modes as with the rear ported Sasha 1 before.
Again I have learnd the hard way that the speakers need time to run-in. Not as bad as the D2-series before but still something about 100 hours.
Moreover I realized once again how bad the supplied metal jumpers are soundwise. Since I have switched to bi-wiring (2x Analysis Plus Big Silver Oval) the SQ increased a lot.
Besides, it is indeed a very nice detail that the rollers and the spikes are both installed in the foot of the speakers at the same time. So moving the speakers was very easy and once the right spot was found mounting the spikes was an easy task like kindergarten ;-)

PS: I am really looking forward to test 802 D3 and 800 D3 later this year!
