Best Amp for under $2000.


What is the best Amp for B & W 801 series 2? I don't want to spend more than $2000.

There are a bunch b&w have always liked krell the bottem end deserves it but you would have to get a tube pre to sweeten the mids also perhaps a threshold one of my favorites was the sa 3.9 60 pure class a now there is sweetness and punch another is the classe dr 9 but once again you need tubes or a matching pre to really enjoy it ... you can pick up the krell ksa 150 ...$ 1700-1900 the threshold sa 3.9 ...$ 1500 and the classe dr9....1300-1600 think krell the 801 need the control in the bottom end also if you have stands fill them with sand that helped when i had them good luck enjoy
buy the used Krell for the following reasons. 1. The krell match up with the 801's very well 2. The krell is over all better amp than most amp out there 3. If u decide on something else, it is easy to sell 4. get 200 KSA-S, best quality krell to buy for ur money. might be little more than what u want to spend...hell, save some more money and get the right one...do not settle for A/B rated Other good ones are Levinson No.27 or No.23
Virtual Mode Amp: 100 w/pc Class A, custom wood enclosure, extensive shielding against EMI/RF, this is one of the best amps under $2000.00 also one of the best solid state amps under $5000.00. Compared against Krell, Aragon, McCormack, Bryston, VTL, Clayton, Belles. You will be hard pressed to find better especially for the money!
