    Hi,

    the new D class power ampli are very good: the "pure classs A" or others , they have sure a great sond but a Belcanto or a Lyngdord (great system in stereo, with roomperfection "gears, great speakers, pre & powerampli AND is expensive the complete system, is not a solution to dont "wasted" money..)
    -> class D today have a very great sound, little "space", no hot temperatur
    well a solution not to say a low high end!!!!!!

    i have Classe power ampli & pre but have listen the Lingdorf but Rotel new 2 channel RB1572 (2x250w.-> oke, what is not quality!!) but hey man they have a great sound!
    with a god prempli a good cable and "your" sistem sound "hot" like a tube~ and very good performance.

    i'm PRO for the new Class D ampli with B&W and other...Sonus faber is not a "hard sound speaker": the model "Liuto" is not a good speaker FOR ME.
    have a sound very "soft" , pasty very different vs. a B&W but is a pesanl taste....

        interesting reading here sound engine, appear to be a fellow aussie, given the aud pricing qouted. what are the DIY amps you mentioned ?

        ps personally I wouldnt be demoing other amp options till the other room is done and dusted.

        the left speaker looks way too close to the side wall and doesnt look like much room behind the speakers as well. This would be impacting quite a lot in my opinion on the overall sound. with a room gain in the bass, plus the limited distance behind the speakers limiting the image depth. the speaker being in close proximity to the side wall would compromise with reflections there as well. Depending on the new room if once set up there to give the speakers more room to breathe I think you will be quite amazed by the end result.

        With the speakers you have and the classe power amp and CD player something like the 700 2ch blanced pre amp would be sensational in my opinion. Have heard it with my cousin while demoing on martin logans to a lovely result

        interesting to read your adventures on re wiring internals. My focals I notice seem to have all internal wiring in some quite special looking silver stuff, I use vdh mgnum myself to hook up to my power amp

            Full 802D Surround or 800D for Front L/R and 802Ds in the Back
            by JKalman
            I'm slowly building up my surround setup and I'm trying to decide whether to go with 802Ds on the rear channels (I currently have 2 already) for the purpose of matching the sound for surround, or moving the 802Ds I have to the real channels and purchasing 800Ds for the front L/R channels. I plan on...

            802D or 800D
            by JKalman
            I talked to my dealer today and can trade in my 802Ds for a pair of 800Ds. I saved up enough money to either do this trade-in or to buy an Ayre C-5xe. If I get the 800Ds I will continue to use my Denon DVD-5910 as a source component and will have to bi-amp the 800D through my 9B SST until I save up...

            800D: bi-amp or monos?
            by worldys
            I ordered a pair of 800D and they will be delivered some time in January. My current amplifier is a Classe 301 so I imagine I should upgade. My pre-amp (BAT 51-SE) has two pairs of balanced outs, so it would be very easy for me to bi-amp. Cost for two good stereos and two good monos seems to be about...

            800D and VLT but what about HT?
            by MikeS
            I was really into audio gear in the 1970s (yes, I'm old) and was able to try many tube components of the era from Marantz, Mac, early ARC and more. My last set-up was a Marantz 8B amp (fantastic highs), Mac C22 pre-amp (good highs, mediocre bass) with 15" JBL woofers, Altec drivers/horns and ElectroVoice...

            800D deal: Should I take it?
            by Oddiophile
            Hi,

            My dealer offered me his demo pair of 800Ds at $19,500 Cdn. At the same time someone offered me $4,000 Cdn for my N802s. The dealer has offered to broker the deal at no cost.

            Is this a good deal?

            What is the normal retail of the 800Ds? (preferably...
