Building a 2-channel audio system using Bowers & Wilson 800D3 speakers


Starting to build a new 2-channel audio system, the speakers are used Bowers & Wilkins 800D3 speakers. Looking for advise from this forum on which Amps, pre-amp, cables, interconnects, line filters, streaming device ect... I should consider.

Thank you everyone I will keep your suggestions in mind. I most likely will opt for the McIntosh 12000 (to save $ and space). If this is the right way to go, what about a compatible streaming device for internet HD music? I know this creates a very simple system, but for now appears to be a good approach unless I hear otherwise.

 

Oh that looks like a beast! Budget for a streamer?  You will get lots of options.

Auralic Aries....Roon?  Lots of other threads on streamers.  Do you want something small like an ifi or Zen or component size with display?  Might not be able to see a display anyway with those big meters!  :)  Streamers do matter, get a nice one.

Thank you "fastfreight" our local Mac dealer recommended the HiFi Rose RS250, but your right the screen is very small and I suspect will be hard to read. I see Mac has a streamer "MS500" which is much more expensive. Has anyone used this streaming device, if so did you like it?
