    N804 & tube amp question

    A question for those of you using tube amps or tube integrateds with your N804's or other Nautilus series, how many watts are your amps? I am debating a integrated tube amp, im trying to stay around $2K, but most of the models are limited to 50 wpc or so. Right now I have a McIntosh MA6900 that is a little too sterile for my tastes & im looking for a wider soundstage and some more warmth. It has 200wpc which is plenty for the N804's, but with a baby on the way in the spring, I doubt i'll need that much power for the next few years... I have a Musical Fidelity A3.2 CD Player, and a Jolida JD-100. I am seriously thinking about a Rogue 55wpc tube integrated. I mainly listen to rock & may watch 1 or 2 movies a month. Thanks for your input.

      N804s or 703s? Please help!
      by jroman
      Hi. I am new to the forum, but have owned smaller B&Ws for nearly 5 years now.

      Due to a move, it is time to upgrade to bigger speakers.

      I can get both the (old) N804 or the (new) 703 for about the same price from a local dealer. I am concerned about the lack of bass...
