I'm sitting here listening to a Clarinet Concerto - all I can say if this is what a ghetto blaster sounds like, then I can only imagine what your D120/Athoms must sound like - and Lord knows what my B&W 803 Diamonds must be like, cos these are way better them. Any case good luck to you

Ok, I have a bit exaggerated with my comparison to a ghetto blaster
But If you ask me blindfolded, which of both sounds is more similar to a ghetto blaster I would say the Phantoms...
But certainly, the Phantoms are so far away from a ghetto blaster, as the Athoms are away from being dull. I had the advantage to hear both systems in a direct comparison under same conditions, not only for a few minutes or hours, but for a weekend and everyone who was with me ("objective" people, because they didn´t heard what they wanted to hear, they were not interested in buying Athoms or Phantoms), has felt the same way.
I have still one Phantom in use, because I like it for some kind of music and because of the ease of use. But when I want to hear really music, I am using my D120/Athoms.
I haven´t really heard your B&W 803, but I have had the Audio Physics Tempo (far away from 50.000,00 €) before and I would say that they are certainly also not worse than the Phantoms.
