tubes with b&w


My system is Consonance droplet CD, Rotel RB-1080, and B&W 804's. I have a largish room and am looking to upgrade my amp. I was looking for a fuller, more immediate sound and was wondering if anybody would recomend tubes. Would tubes be a good match with b&w? 5k is the limit new or used

thanks

Yes! I have the B&w N805, Bag End 18" sub, with Rogue Stereo 90 Amp and Conrad Johnson Premier 14 preamp, with PS Audio xStream Resolution Transendent cables through out system except for speaker cable is the PS audio resolution Reference.
My system has always captivated my interest and GRAPPED my attention....impossible to concentrate while reading a magazine while listening to music....Tubes truely helped make the connection!!! With the right tubes, an acoustic guitar can sound natrual and fooled into believing you are there!!! (not just acoustic guitar but any musical instrument that is not amplified.) I do love rock, jazz, rap, heavy metal, country, heck, really anything that has been recorded well!!! Tubes have a fuller, richer, blacker background than I've experience with solid state.
Note on Tube Maintenance: Today, most tube amps will not require a lot of maintenance. Such as biasing is much easier and not needed as often...in fact I just recently replaced the tubes in my preamp, which I puchased in Nov 1997. The Rogue amp I've had since 2000 and it was orginally the Rogue 80, but last year I upgraded it to the stereo 90 and have never replaced a tube (of course they put in new tubes when they upgraded), and only biased it when it arrived (different elevations will affect bias...I live at 6000+ feet.)
One last note: Although my system sounded beautiful in the past it wasn't until I recently re-wired my system with the PS Audio xStream Resolution cables that my system "homogenized", i.e. Turntable, cd player, tuner all had a different, but very good sound...once replaced with the same cable, I have reached my Nirvana and am now using my spare money to decorating the listening room. At last no longer looking or chasing after the ultimate sound!
There are many happy users with the combination. I know of several that are using McIntosh tube amplification and are very happy but note that the more power the better for B&Ws.
Listening right now to 802 matrixs with a Jolida 502brc tube integrated that sounds very,very good - as good if not better than the Meridian system I have (DSP-5000's)
