Hello B&W friends!
I have followed the discussion about the "right Amp" for B&W D series for a long time now and just want to share my experiences with you.
I have my 802 D´s for almost 2 years now and started with Rotel equipment (RSP 1098 + RMB 1075). Then I bought a Classe CAV 180 for driving my surround system (802D+804back+HTM1center) which was a great improvement over the rotel RMB 1075. After that I bought a pair of used Classe CAM 350 for front channels which was again an improvent. What I was searching for when listening to the classe´s was a bit more dynamic sound. So I switched over to Krell (KCTpre+FPB 300cx) which gave more dynamics and a, lets say, more "brilliant" sound. But I still had the feeling, that the 802D´s can do more and that there must be something better out there. My dealer strongly recommended to try audionet. Audionet is a small german company and in all tests they had very very good results. So I bought a surround pre/pro with external power supply, and a multiplayer (a hifi magazine called it the "best multiplayer of the world"). Last week my daler gave me a audionet demo amp (one of the first two channel amp out of a brandnew series which is just launched)
The result is just ;x( ;x( ;x( ;x( ;x(
It´s really hard to explain but especially the amp makes such a huge difference to Krell and Classe that it is just incredible. The 802D are really exploding and dancing! There is so much more from everything: more dynamics, so much more details that I´m discovering all my music in a new way, more punch, much more brilliance,a soundstage that is a real live feeling-absolutely no comparison to the other components I had before. And in this case, it´s not a question of personal taste- it´s clear a lot better and pure Highend! Everytime you switch it on, you´re just wowed and wondering what the 802D´s can do 8O . Now I ordered already a pair of monos which are coming out in 4 weeks (see picture from audionet). After a long time of searching and sometimes also a littlebit frustration (you spend so much money and you´re still not satisfied) I finally found the system which offers the feeling I was searching for: total pleasure each time you switch it on!
Keep on posting and excuse my bad english
