Amps for 805's

Attention to all B&W 805 owners? I am going for a new overhaul. Tell me, what equipment do you use and why do you like it? What does it sound like? I am one to drool over musically and dynamics, over some cool sound. Also I know about system synergy, and am trying to figure out which pieces work best together.
Thanks

Hey, sorry i am jumping in so late here!
I just got Nautilus 805s and my system uses a Linar 250 amp
Sony DVP 9000 es Sacd player with transparent interconnects
analysis plus oval 9 shotgun bi-wire and sound anchor stands
all running thru a Proceed AVP-s
a few tips for you,I use a Monster power HTS 5000 which greatly reduces the noise floor, these speakers love bi-wire
and plenty of power, i also use an M&K MX125 subwoofer that makes these speakers sound like N801s!
I have THE hugest smile when i come home! i cant stop listening ;-)
feel free to drop me a note if you have more questions.

I am not too creative, I use Naim CD 5, Flat cap power supply, 112 pre-amp and 150 power amp, and Naim strongly recommend to use their speaker cable. They sound great and the music is very natural, alot of texture, and no hassels with matching cables because the Naim engineers have them all figure out and provide them with the equipment.
