Hi,
I am in the final stages of lusting after a B&W 803D / HTM2D set-up which I was going to pre-order very shortly and thought - why not also look at the rears (Sikoniko!!). They have new SCMS which are like the new 805S but sealed rather than ported...
Anyway does anyone with the existing SCM1s have experience with how power hungry they are? For example they are rated at 50 to 120W and have a minimum impedance of 4.7 Ohm so in theory my Rotel RMB-1075 which I currently use for my rears should do fine... However (being B&W Nautilus) I keep on having a nagging feeling that they may want more power (like 200W a channel)... I'm going to ask B&W directly in early January 2005 when they get back from leave but I thought I'd ask here as well to get some real world experiences...
PS - I'd also be interested in experiences with the 805s as they spec quite similarly to the SCMS..
