what is the best pre-amp and amplifier for b&w 805 signature speakers?

The same as the best for any other high fidelity speaker.
So, how much can you afford? No pre amp is the best way to go with the right digital front end. Get a DAC with a good digital volume control and a righteous noisier floor- say, NAD M51, Weiss DAC202, or TotalDAC D1- or go with a Scarlatti stack from dCS if you have the cojones. Amp, well, how low do you want your distortion? I'd start with looking at nCore based products. If you like euphonic colorations, then an Audio Research reference series tube amp, or JL1 signature mono blocks might be the setup for you.the AudioWorx

Resistance is not futile, it is Volts divided by Amperes...

Yup. The best pre amp is no pre amp. But if your not looking to invest in a new DAC, and your source (CD player?) has a good output stage, then run a passive pre amp. Goldpoint and many other make affordable products like this.Seek out and destroy early high gain room reflectionsComment
