    Anyone tried a Carver with a pair of B&W 804s?

    Been looking at Carver amps latley and was wondering how one would sound with my B&W for 2 channel music only?
    Denon 2808 for pre
    28x18 room
    Oppo BD83 for transport
    Pair of matched powerd subs that will stay on the Denon for Bass control
    Thanks

    I remember someone on here had a picture of some Carver amps with B&Ws - might of actually been 804S or N804. I used to have a Carver TFM35x - gave it to a friend which I regret doing. My experience with Carver amps was great, just their pre-amps where a little noisy IMO.

      I used Carver's Sunfire Signature with my old N802's and current 802D's and loved the combo. Lots of current on tap to make the B&Ws sing!

      I also have the watts smaller Sunfire stereo amp. In a few weeks I'm going to bi-amp the Sunfire amps (600w to the woofers and 300 to the marlan head) - I know its total overkill, but should be fun to try
      Stereo: Revel F208, Parasound JC2, JC1's, Oppo HA-1, VPI, Dynavector, Moon

      HT: B&W 802D2, 805S, HTM4, Marantz, OPPO BDP95, Velodyne DD-12's

      HP / secondary system: Woo Audio W2, Carver Sunfire, Kef LS50, Denon, and too many headphones to list
