Amp Config for B&W 802D's Abbey Road uses 2 400w monoblocks to drive their D800's. http://www.bowers-wilkins.com/display.aspx?infid=1621 I use a single pair of Omicron monos. It depends what you want to do, I went with the higher quality amp that still has plenty of current. | |
deadheads: Best sounding Dicks Picks....top 5 Don't have them in front of me, but have to second Slipknot's choices. Also would add Terrapin Station and Without a Net as some of the best sounding and best performances (not DP's I know). Starting with DP 15 I believe, they went with HDCD encod... | |

Question about Lovan racks I have the Sovereign series racks, but was a little confused on how to fill them as well. I had to knock out the caps on top of each stand. I used a threaded rod (bought from a hardware store) and a hammer. I also filled mine with lead shot (from ... | |
B&W 803Diamond or Revel Ultima Studio More a matter of taste based on what you listen to. IMO, B&W's are better at anything with acoustic instruments, Classical, Jazz, Bluegrass, etc., while the Revels will excel at power music, i.e., rock and other amplified music. | |
Which amps with B&W 800D's... Pass Labs or Classe? I am running the Omega Omicrons with my D800s, a great combo. A pair just showed up for sale for less then $10k. Worth streching for IMO. CA-M400's are really good too though. I haven't heard the Pass stuff though. | |
What is a 20 Amp circuit ? The equation is basically Wattage = Amps x Voltage, i.e., a 120v service on a 15a line would be capable of 1800w. Moving up to a 20a breaker would net you 2400w. This is not as easy as swapping breakers as others have said, the wire must also be u... | |
Review: Levinson Media 51 Transport This player really is quite exceptional on 2 channel, the only way I have heard it so far. It is however, a departure in sound for Levinson. The sound is more Linn-like to my ears, with a smoother top end, huge sound-staging and a tuneful, rather ... | |
Clearaudio Champion II and ___________Tonearm. Unify, it actually fits... | |
Mark Levinson 333.5 vs 432 I tried the 432 but found that the 336 was a better match for my speakers, B&W D800's. If your speakers like a lot of juice, and you like the Levinson sound, skip the 432 and go to a pair of 436's. Much better sound for not that much more mone... | |
Connecing Balanced and Unbalanced at the same time I would look for a decent 2 channel preamp with a HT pass through instead. You will most likely end up with better sound (I don't like systems with no preamps) as it buffers the amp connection with both HT and music. Plus, you have a much simpler ... | |
Can I repair speaker foam? You can try a little tape on the back side, but I would bring it in to a shop and have them put a new surround on. | |
Power Conditioner for your amplifier? I am using a UPC-200 (in HC mode), and have found it all around better then "straight in". | |
help me build a system for $1200 My vote would go to the Musical Fidelity X-150. Will drive most anything, and add a cheaper full range speaker to go with you musical taste, PSB? |
