Offered is „800 D3 Schwarz-Hochglanz/ Einzelstück“ by B&W as second-hand device from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 6721168681 ends on 24.10.2026 at 06:09 o'clock.
With the 805 D4 now established as the current 800 Series generation, this €6,990 listing for the previous 800 D3 is a genuine bargain, sitting well below the typical used market range of €15,000 to €17,000 for this model in good condition. The asking price is roughly 40% lower than the 25th percentile of recent listings, making it an exceptional value for a flagship speaker that has been superseded but not outclassed in sound.
These speakers remain a top-tier choice for listeners who prioritize B&W’s signature clarity, tight bass, and airy treble, delivering a performance that rivals many current models well above their price. The inclusion of original cables and accessories adds meaningful upside, and the Schwarz-Hochglanz finish is a classic, elegant look that fits most interiors. At this price, it’s a rare buying opportunity to own flagship performance without the flagship cost.

Bowers & Wilkins, the esteemed British hi-fi brand, traces its origins to 1966 in Worthing, West Sussex, when John Bowers founded the company with a £10,000 bequest from a satisfied customer, Miss Knight, who admired his hobby-crafted loudspeakers. Previously, Bowers and Roy Wilkins had run an electronics rental shop after meeting in the British Army during World War II. This fortuitous legacy fueled Bowers' obsession with acoustic perfection, launching the P1 as their inaugural product and establishing a foundation of relentless innovation in speaker design.
The brand excels in premium loudspeakers across categories like floorstanders, bookshelves, and studio monitors, with iconic lines such as the 600 Series for accessible excellence and the legendary 801, adopted as Abbey Road Studios' reference in 1979. They also produce high-end headphones like the P5 and Zeppelin, formation audio systems, and select electronics, prioritizing driver technology, cabinetry, and precise engineering over amplifiers, turntables, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Bowers & Wilkins commands reverence among discerning audiophiles and professionals for its clarity, musical truth, and uncompromised fidelity. A staple in both consumer and studio environments, it embodies British precision engineering, blending heritage with cutting-edge research to sustain its status as a benchmark for premium audio excellence.
