based on your title, does b&w help? probably not mine anyways.. heh

If you have the space, you made a good choice. most people don't have the space to accomodate that speaker.

I would probably go McIntosh amp for those speakers.. preamp would be a toss-up... but probably the anthem statement...

Ive been a happy owner for 6 years now to a pair of N801. They will need a good amount of power to come alive, I use ML 333.5 and can recommend it for its neutrality and for its musicality.
