I would give serious  consideration to the Cambridge Audio Edge A or the Anthem STR.

Cheers,

Samac gave good recommendations, the Anthem STR is great, and has ARC (the room correction, not HDMI ARC).  
 

I can recommend Rogue Cronus Magnum II to drive your B&W805.


My Rogue Cronus Magnum II had been refitted with Nos AMPEREX (BUGLE BOY) 12AU7 and 12AX7 about 3 years ago.

It sounds much better than stock tubes with refined high,natural mid and better nuance.

Recently I replaced AMPEREX 12AX7 with Telefuken 12AX7 that I bough 2 years ago at 90$.

Wow it resulted in explosive dynamics and wider sounstage without etched high.

If you own Rogue Cronus Magnum II, you have to try Nos Telefuken 12AX7 yourself.

It need to be noted that even Nos tube quality can vary so you need to buy a tube from the reliable source who offer unconditional return.


I bought my tubes from Ebay dealer who has good feedback and offer unconditional return.

If you buy used Rogue Cronus Magnum II and get those NOS tubes around 300$.


But I am pretty sure that it will make you happy.
