Thanks for responding Lafish. What would be the minimum to drive the N802s?
Dynaudio S5.4 vs B&W 802
Being an audioholic. I can't resist the drive to upgrading . I listened to the contour S5.4 today and was very impressed. Great soundstaging, details, dynamics and no hint of brightness. Electronics were ML 436, Audioresearch LS 25MK2 and Wadia 301. I prefer the S5.4 to the C2, S3.4 & the special 25. There were lots of similarities betw. S25 and my B&W signature 805s. I felt that S25 and C2 were marginally thinner sounding perhaps due to the relative lack of bass. This was probably exacerbated by a 20 x 30 ft rm. Overall the S5.4 was the most balanced.
I've thoroughly enjoyed my Sig 805s for its many attributes. What they miss is the sense of scale that only large floorstanders can muster. I felt 801s were too base strong and I was planning to upgrade to the 802s.
Now I'm torn.
Any help is appreciated.
