I just don't like conflicting info - especially when released by an "official source," such as the actual manufacturer.
And, yeah, the 801 is a different speaker - except for the fact that the mid/tweeter section is exactly the same as in the 802. Haven't checked the schematic on the 801 vs 802, but I believe the upper range crossover may be the same as well.
