Q: Do they come with stands? If not, what do stands cost? Stands are a must.

A: 805D3 are sold without stands as some customers use them as bookshelf speakers. The matching stand is the FS805 and they are available for $1200 per pair.

Q: What is the best amp, let us forget $ for a second. Lit. says 50 watts to 120, into 8Ohms, so that means a Mc150, or Pass Labs, XA60.8 {2}, the XA30.8 at 30 per isn't going to be enough?

A: I would get the Rotel RA-1572. Rotel is a sister company to B&W and the Integrated Amplifier was designed with B&W speakers in mind. The Amp has 2 x 120W output and the B&W 805 D3 is rated 50-120W at 8 Ohms ... You do not want to overpower your speakers...

Q: IS THE BOWERS AND WILKINS 805 D4 AVAILABLE AT BEST BUY

A: Hello, The 805 D4 can be ordered with Best Buy. It is recommended to give your local Best Buy store a call to see if they have the 805 D4 on display.

Q: What is the height of these speakers when on the stands?

A: 40.1 inches without attaching spikes or rubber feet to the bottom of the stands. Those add an additional 1/2".

Q: Can the B&W 805D4 speaker be purchased through Magnolia, in the satin walnut finish?

A: Hello, Any speaker in the current Bowers & Wilkins line-up can be ordered through Magnolia in any available finish.
