I can accept that, I guess my "inside info" is wrong, I think that it is flat out wrong to tell people that "they are THE EXACT same thing", when instead "they are almost the same, except for the internal wiring is a different grade". I do know that the CDM is a great sounding speaker for the $$, I apologize if I have mis-lead anyone. I guess it is almost like saying "the Maxima and I35 use THE SAME EXACT engine", when infact the I35 has a better tuned engine (with a few different goodies) to get 5 extra HP.
Like I said before, my info told me that they were the exact same as the 804 and 805, but that the 803 and up used the Flat wire, it sounds to me (if that article is correct) that this is used on hte 805 as well. Not only did I have some "inside info" (that now appears to be wrong), but it also seemed to coorelate with the brochures as both the 800 series and CDM series, under the specs page say "Nautilus tweeter", which seemed to match my info. So technically speaking I have a "Nautilus tweeter" but it is slightly different that the "Nautilus tweeter" on the 800 series. Interesting? I guess it is a good thing that I bought the speaker based on how it sounded verses what the claims and specs were.
