B&W 802 N with Wyred4sound 1000 STI

I will soon be able to obtain a pair of B&W 802N loudspeakers for my 2 channel system. Has anyone heard them with a W4S amp? Any other amplifier/pre amp suggestions?

I have the multi amp chassis and have the 802D's bi-amped, with a 250W amp for the highs and a 500W amp for the bottom end. They built 250W amps with a high pass filter to keep the mids and highs clean. The 802D's like an amp that is a high current source and these really do the job. The power never clips at any level. Also, I preferred a tube preamp with it... an ARC LS-26. Good luck with your system!
