    CA400 or CAM200s for N802s?

    I currently have Classe CA-400 for my 802s and there is a pair of CAM-200s on sale at audiogon. It is tempting to try those...I am assuming the CAMs would have better drive ability on lower inpedance but fundamentaly wattage is half...Does anyone have CAM200s with 802s?

    Should I wait to see if CAM-350 come around ?

    I appreciate your advice.

    I have seen more than few CAM 350 for sale in audiogon. some of which were sold for a very reasonable price. For the 802 I would not compromise on a 200W amp. Just my humble opinion.

        802 D with CAM 350 is the best combo I´ve heard so far. Masashik, what price would you pay for a pair in mint condition?

          Thanks for the offer and I am happy to pay according to Audiogon Bluebook but I do not think I can afford the shipmen from Germany. :roll:

              I see. I recommend to go to Audiogon and check the bluebook there. I do not think it is appropriate to discuss particular price in the forum. :W

                i think the omega and omicron dual monoblocks beat the cam 350s, they get great reviews on audioreview.com, they are big and heavy so harder to maneuver than separate monoblocks but sonically a better product in my humble opinion

                  B&W N802s and McIntosh Amps
                  by jteoh1
                  I'm looking some opinion on a good amp to drive N802s.

                  I'm upgrading my Denon 5803 receiver 2 front channels to a separate amp. So far, I have brought home the following amps for evaluation:
                  • Bryston 4B SST - Good details, mid is too forward sounding, lacks bass at low volume....

                  :rofl:

                  I saw these when they were first listed and sent the seller a message.
                  They obviously have no idea wtf they are dealing with. I politely suggested that they would be looking at under 4000$ for the pair since nice complete pairs of 802s go for 4-5k with boxes.

                  N802s stay... what would you replace and why?
                  by Race Car Driver
                  Ok, my 802s are keepers.
                  With that, what out of my current equipment, would you replace next (or add to what I have)... and why. (all 3 items will be upgraded eventually)

                  How to move N802s
                  by beden1
                  I have the opportunity to purchase a used set of Nautilus 802s locally with no boxes. But, I need to ship them to my Florida house from Pennsylvania.

                  The big issue is that they weigh 176 lbs. each. I first need to move them from where they are now, and then drive them to my house. I...
