I didn't find them to be a particularly tough load at all..I ran them with Threshold ( Nelson Pass ) S/300 Series 2 amplifier with no problems at all.....They sounded fantastic.I would guess probably Pass Labs monos or another I would consider is the Parasound JC-1 monos should make them sing...Also hope your not using those crappy B&W Bass filters..Thats the first thing I dumped..Great speaker...I enjoyed them for many years.......
Best solid state amp for B&W 801 Matrix Series 2
I'm currently looking at the Bryston 14BSST2, but I'm not 100 percent sure. I already have a 4BSST.Would that be ok? But anyway, what would you guys and gals choose for the power hungry 801s? My spending limit is $7000.
