B&W 802D -- Classe' CA-5200 vs. Rotel RMB 1095?


Need quick input. THe question is whether getting a 5200 at $5k vs. getting a 1095 at $1.5k is a choice that will deliver "years of happiness" with improvements in the the speakers at all volume levels. HT system includes DS8s for surround and HTM4 for center. Thanks.

You are joking, right? This is not even close, the 802D's are something special and I really don't think the Rotel would do them justice.
Guybguy,
FWIW I think the 802's std and 803D's are awesome sounding, so I would think the 802D's would sound better than either of those. There are better speakers, but no perfect speakers.
