    Amp Recommendation for B&W N805's

    Hi Everyone,

    Anyone have any recommendations for a 5-channel amp to drive four N805's and an HTM2?

    Here is my current setup:

    Panasonic TH-42PX25U/P
    Denon AVR-5800 (upgraded)
    Denon DVD-2910
    JVC HR-S9900U
    B&W Nautilus 805 (4)
    B&W Nautilus HTM2
    Velodyne HGS-15
    Monster Power HTS 5100 & 3500
    Salamander Designs Synergy
    Monster Cable M Series

    Thanks in advance,

    Cory

    I use a Rotel RMB-1075, 120-W per channel, for my 805s. Seems to do the trick quite well. I'm speaking from the perspective of someone with an average-sized living room. If you have a large room or dedicated theater, I'd recommend going up to the Rotel RMB-1095 at 200-W per channel.

      Nautilus 805/htm2 Reviews, Info, and Q&A
      by sikoniko
      I am putting the htm2 speaker in with this review because it is the only center that matches these speakers.

      The 805 is the cheapest of the Nautilus speakers, if you do not include a stand in the price. When I brought these speakers home initially, I didnt really have very high hopes....

      Combining Nautilus with 800 series...
      by weijst
      Is there anyone out there who's combining the 'old' Nautilus series with the new 800 series?

      The reason I ask is because I'm not sure wether to opt for a pair of N804 or 805S to hook up next to my Nautilus HTM2 ('old series'). I know the ideal match would be a pair of N805, but reading...

      Thanks to all - Purchased a 1075
      by Mike Hayes
      Thanks to all for your suggestions regarding choosing the right Rotel. I ended up going with a 1075 for now and hope to add either a 1066 or 1055 down the road. I thought that I had the funds for both the pre/pro and the amp, but I ended up having to choose one or the other. After looking very long...

      Help - Best Adcom HT Amp Wiring to HTM2 ?
      by yyz
      I recently purchased an Adcom GFA6000 amp with Ace615 line conditioner.
      The 6000 is primarily designed for home theater with three (L+C+R) 100w and two (L+R surr) amp sections.

      I already have an Adcom GFA555II driving my main L+R channels so the 6000 is purely for my HT speakers....
