Define power hungry...B&W speakers


I need to know what is important in amplification to power my B&W CDM 1NT's. Rated from 50-125 I believe. How much minimum power is necessary, damping factor, etc. What specs are important to me?
Thank you!

Tntate,

the power ampselection will depend upon tubed or solid-state. Over the years, I have heard many, many power amps n the various B&W speakers.

The newest Conrad Johnson Classic 60 is more than enough to drive at concert levels. On the SS side, Classe' , Mark Levinson, Rotel and Bryston all sound excellent as well.

Most importantly, which brand(s) of cables/power cords are you planning to use?

Keep me posted and Happy Listening!
