After 7 years B&W is finally replacing their top Nautilus line. There will actually be 2 sub ranges in this new line, which will be called the 800 Range.
Here's a link to a thread with more info at Audio Asylum:

Yeah, the only noticable change I see is the center channel (HTM) speaker... and there will be a 803 that has 3 woofers.
-
actually doesnt that center channel just look like the super expensive center channel they have? i have the htm1 i believe (one step down from the crazy expensive one).
fwiw, my 5.1 setup is 803's, 805's and an htm1 with a velodyne dd sub

I'm pretty sure the only center they have more expensive than the HTM-1 is the Signature HTM-1.

Nice speaker selection, btw!!

ah ok. who knows, if it sounds good i may trade my htm1 and go for the new htm1. i love my system- it's designed to be the grace design of systems- crystal clarity with little tempering to the sound.

Not that my home system is in anywhere the same league as most of you guys but Jonny, this is the same philosophy that I apply to my playback. I want to reproduce the recording as accurately as possible.
My recording philosophy is exactly the opposite though....
