When I look in my B&W speaker manuals they state BI-AMPING is prefered. I spoke with B&W directly on desired amps and the only real statement I got from them is to BI-AMP if at all possible. So I went with B&W'S recommendations. Simply thought if they design them and build them they should have the most knowledge about there speakers. They do not build AMPS or cables so there is no gain for them to state that BI-AMPING is better unless they believe it will help the sound of there speaker. I have found that it sure is what I prefer as well.
Best amps for new B&W Nautilus 800's
I just purchased the new B&W Nautilus 800's. These babies will play a dual role in my home theater and for music listening -- more music than theater use. I have listened to Mark Levinson 336, Classe CAM350, Classe 401, and Krell 300c. Am also interested in Krell 350Mc's and 600c. These amps range quite a bit in price, and I'm willing to spend money -- but I want to spend SMART money. My pre-amp/processor is the new Theta Casablanca II with Extreme DACs. I haven't selected a new DVD or CD transport yet. I like strong bass and want to control the speakers with authority. Please help me select best amp.
