Best preamplifier, amplifier for B&W 800 Diamond

Buying the new B&W 800 Diamond speakers (already installed). I was wondering who has first hand experience which preampifiers and amplifers sound best with these speakers. Sound quality is the most important issue, not necessarily price. Any feedback would be appreciated!

I posted back in 8/11 and have since updated my preamp to the c1000 Mcintosh with the same 1.2k monos, pretty good combo if I do say so myself.

It is better to bi-amp using one amp per speaker. Every amp has a little crosstalk from channel to channel, this way the crosstalk will all one sided.
