PS Audio M700 or M1200 low frequency bass


Hi all, I have a pair of B&W 805D3 that is notorious for being hard to drive to extract those low frequency bass.  I was going with Mcintosh approach but after multiple listening sessions found Mcintosh sound too relaxed for my taste.  I like Class D's fast dynamics but my previous Class Ds (Marantz PM-10, Mcintosh MC-152) weren't able to produce low frequency with the 805 D3.  I'm currently using a Class AB Denon SX11 amp, thinking giving PS Audio a try since so many say it's got great bass.  Anyone has experience pairing it with speakers that have difficult to drive low frequency bass?  For those who bought and sold the M700/M1200, what weakness did you not like about them?  Thanks ahead.

I owned the M700 and liked them very much. I kept Parasound Halo JC1 instead. More expensive and felt that they would drive any speaker I ever bought. I have no reason to believe that the M700 wouldn't do well either though. I thought they were pretty comparable though. Not sure about B&W though. they are tough to drive they say. I'm a big fan of the PS Audio.
