I heard many many amps on the 800N speakers. And yess the most ss like Krell and ML where not the sound I liked. I use a modidfied Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista 300 power. This one uses also tubes and you have a lot of power and control to. I changed the old transformers to E Transformers, those gave me much more control and also a very natural sound in the mid freq.
Experience on B&W N800 with Tube Amplifier
Can anyone who uses a tube amplification to drive his N800 (or 800D) give some feedback which amplifier he uses and whether he is pleased etc? I guess it is an urban legend not to consider tubes to drive 800s (with some exceptions of some SE and/or amps with very low damping), to me it is just a question of taste and type of music to listen.
Personally I am not comfortable with biamping with a SS for bass units so please consider that fact, also mostly jazz and classical music should be listened
Feedbacks welcome, thks.
