On a budget 802N or 803D??? Dealer says 803D.

I'm Lovin it! Found a deal on a great pair of 802N demos for $4800.00 at a B&W store with the five year warranty ! Got them home, hooked them up and wow, man are they heavy, even with my low end equipment I'm lov'in the enchanced soundstage, detailed bass, midrange with clarity and awesome upper frequency, total improvement across the board. Buying these should save me enough to upgade another peice or two. Any suggestions as to what to upgrade next? I'm thinking Classe amp or preamp or both. I'll probably go with used equipment. Thanks everyone, for your help!!!

When you are lookig for a great combi for a bargain. Look for a Musical fidelity Nu-vista M3 ( not a tri-vista, it can give you problems with the tweeter of the 802n). It will take some time, but in a few months you'll find one. Why? For the control in the low's, musical mid and sweet high freq. The M3 gives more speed and control in the low's and a better threedemensional view of the recording compared to the older classe. I done many test with Classe and B&W. And when you have more money to spend. The new Classe is also an option.

Still loving those 802N's. Well have'nt seen that Musical Fidelity Nu-vista unit yet but Im certainly looking out for it. One lemon drop martini and my current system sounded very good today after a long hard day. Leonx, would ther be much difference in doubling the amp output from about 200 watts to approx. 350/400 watts? What about using two amps rated at 200 watts and biamping? Which would be better? Why? Thanks!

It will give you more controle but also more resolution. So it will improve the total balance of your system. But watts is not the main thing. You also need a poweramp who can give you a good focus and resolution.
