Amp Selection Assistance Needed


I am looking for a ~200 WPC two channel amplifier to upgrade the two channel performance of my HT system. The speakers are B&W N204s, Arcam FMJ 23T CD player, Rotel preamp (2 channel pass-through).

I have been considering McCormack DNA 225/DNA 1, Classe 200/201, Bryston 4BST/SST. While I will perform my own auditioning, I would appreciate your comments on your experiences with, and the merits of the amps mentioned above.

Thanks,

Pete

I've listened to N804 driven by a dna-2 delux extensively. great match! b&w speakers tend to sound very warm/lush and the mccormacks neutral-lean sound is a great balance. also great soundstage.
