B&W and Musical Fidelity

Looking to change my 5 channel amp from rotel to musical fidelity. I find the rotel b&w combo., I use signature 805s, to be bright. Would the ht500 from MF be better suited. My pre/pro is meridian 561.

Thanks

I think they are a very good fit as long as I don't try to crank it to loud. The 802's are a demanding load. The MF has plenty of current but is only 120 watts. The 802's could handle more. At any rate, I think the combo is very detailed and transparent without ever sending harsh. At current used prices the HT500 seems to be a steal. Regards, Paul
