Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston I could unsolder resistors, but I’d rather upgrade speakers if be-amping does not work. I already looked at Proac D25 but did not like its bass.It was a bit slow and not very tight. I prefer overall tonality and speed of b&W802. I’m thinking a... | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston I don't have analog source but I don't think it's Toshiba. Tweeters don’t sound too bad with well recorded music. Only bad recordings sound really harsh. Unfortunately a very significant part of my CD collection makes my eyes bleeding.I can’t list... | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston Roadman99999, I've got Creek OBH-12 so the difference in amps gain is not a problem. I had in mind Bryston 4B pro or Adcom. I can’t decide on tube amp. I’m trying to minimize harshness of metal tweeters and I think I’d be better off either with pp... | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston Hi Bill,After trying different apms with my 802 I concluded that your solution- biamping with tube and SS is optimal. I have very little experience with tube gear and I'm thinking about VTL ST 85 or 150. Can you tell me what tube amp are you using... | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston Hi Bill,I think that the major problem is the amp. I have Cornwalls and Aleph 3 and SD9200 does not sound too bright with them.I agree with Electroid neither Bryston no Musical Fidelity are nice on the top, both sound metallic. I want to try CJ an... | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston It's a good point. I did not think about it. | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston I agree. This is why the idea of second MF looked to me very appealing. It would double the power and I would not have problems with different gains and impedances. MF is actually dual mono amp. I would technically have 4 mono amps to do both vert... | |
Bi wiring or bi amping NHT VT-3s I agree. This is why the idea of second MF looked to me very appealing. It would double the power and I would not have problems with different gains and impedances. MF is actually dual mono amp. I would technically have 4 mono amps to do both vert... | |
Biamping B&W 802 with Musical Fidelity and Bryston Kal, I tried Bryston 4b sst in my set up and treble sounded a bit harsh. The bass was slightly tighter but not much deeper. I'm not sure if the problem was the source. Toshiba SD 9200 is considered a decent one but it is a DVD player. Single ended... | |
A/V Receiver for B&W matrix speakers Guys,thank you for your input. I bought Marantz SR 18. | |
A/V Receiver for B&W matrix speakers Pdn, Gaw, Kewadinbob,Besides the number of channels and power output ( I presume they both have A/B type of PAs) what is the difference between SR18 and SR8500. I mean video and audio signals processing capabilities?Can I bypass Marantz audio proc... | |
A/V Receiver for B&W matrix speakers Sigarbire, Do you have any particular model in mind?I saw lots of 1056 for sale. I'm not sure whether it is a good or bad sign for this model. | |
A/V Receiver for B&W matrix speakers I’m referring to B&W 800 Matrix series. Im not sure if Marantz could handle B&W speakers. They need high current amp. |
