B&W 805 versus Dynaudio 52SE

I'm more or less committed to one of these as I have a store credit at a dealer who stocks only these two brands.
I will be using Musical Fidelity X-Ray CD player and X-150 amp.
I'd welcome opinions of the strengths of these speakers, especially if used with Musical Fidelity gear. Interesting to hear what interconnects/speaker wire you have used in such combinations too.
Also...Is the much more expensive B&W Signature 805 overkill in view of my other equipment? Or would it be a smart purchase?
Thanks.

sigs might be a little bright, but are definately accurate. Both are great speakers.

Here's my humble opinion. I have the gorgeous s 805s in an HT system with N 805 surrounds and htm 1 for center. I started this system with a B&K avr 202 receiver and they were fabulous. I, as suggested above, have since upgraded all of my equipment with great rewards in sound quality. Using a new rotel 5 channel amp at 150 watts with meridian processor/preamp. Believe me, the signatures are class and quality that you won't regret. My two pennies.
