Just before Dan D'Agostino released his speakers, he called actively bi-amped B&W800's "the best speaker on the planet."
He was asked why he used the Wilson X-1 at home and he said:
"They don't do anything wrong and if I have a prototype amp to try, I only need to build one."
I followed his advice and am thrilled with the result. Nothing that I have ever done to my system has made such a big improvement. I have always wanted to add the MRA's to drive my speakers.
With the money that you would save on the megabuck speakers, you could probably get another set of the MRA's (and the KBX).
The only speakers that I have heard that are in a league with mine are the big Pipedream's and the big Dali's, but both of these also require active bi-amplification and they carry a big price tag.
