I had B&W 802 III with the 300i and 250cd and it was great. If you are looking at the latest B&W's, I would consider the CDM-9NT or 805N with possibly a sub later.
Need B&W match for Krell KAV300i amp
Need others' experience/knowledge picking the right B&W to match the Krell KAV300i integrated amp/pre amp. Cables: Cardas Cross. Other component: Cambridge Audio CD Player (CD 6).
If not familiar with the amp., characteristics: aggressive (150 wpc over 8 ohms and 300 wpc over 4 ohms); instrument panning from right to left is not smooth; the treble is clean and "airy," but the bass really "slams" and is also prominent.
Looking for B&W to enhance best qualities of the amp. Speaker qualities: with soft dome tweeter, darker, tuned down cross over, with strong mid bass. Since KAV is "bright", probably need to avoid speaker with treble emphasis.
Constraints: Needs to be B&W (for now) and budget is <=$2,000.
Thanks in advance for the expertise here...
