Today few videos surfaced on Youtube with the showcase of the new series with a factory tour and presentation by a tech specialist that discussed the new engineering features (this is one:

Looking forward to learn about hands on impressions! The B&W 800 series (first the N and then the Diamond Gen 1) was the most popular audiophile line of speakers when I used to live in Italy and was the speakers I listened to a gazillion times, at a friend's home, in my trusted showroom and at shows. Exceptional but super current hungry speakers.
They used to be considered awesome for the quality/price ratio, despite it has to be acknowledged that prices have got a big bump up with this D4 (~30% more than the D3).
The Diamond Gen 1 used to look better IMHO.
