Mcintosh MA-7900 home theater bypass with subs - not doable?
OK.  Got it.  I would try a McIntosh dealer or the factory.  There is a very helpful dealer in Ann Arbor, MI called Paragon Sight & Sound.  Ask for Matt.  He can assist over the phone and guide you in the right direction. Let me know how it wo...

I have the exact  B&W system you are referencing.  I have the 805's plus a B&W sub to match.  I have this in my bedroom setup and it sounds fantastic.  Great midrange and highs and the subs fill in the rest. My sub is the ASW10CM.  I defin... 
Mcintosh MA-7900 home theater bypass with subs - not doable?
I saw that there were 2 mentions in the owners manual on pages 5 and 20.  Not sure if that helps but am curious if you have the latest firmware upgrade? I have mostly McIntosh equipment and would reach out to a local dealer or the company headquar... 
Looking for a front end streamer only.

mammothguy54 and sgreg1 what do you recommend for long runs of balanced cable if I were to figure out a way to get the amps out by the speakers? 
Guidance on Speaker Wire

Thanks to everyone who has assisted so far!  Unfortunately, I am not able to locate my amps any closer to the speakers which I know would be ideal.  Keep the ideas coming.  The reason the run is 60 feet long is based on getting the wire from my me...

Thanks for your input twoleftears. I checked and they will make 60 foot runs.  They advise to use the brick with it.  I was seeing if anyone could confirm this is a good choice or for me to look at some alternatives.    
Guidance on Speaker Wire
The distance from the mechanical room to the speakers are 60 feet not 120 feet.  Yes I do need a total of 120 combined for the main speakers.

ElliottBnewcombjr,you make a great point; however, setting up my amps in the room is not practical.  I went down that road.  Appreciate the thinking though.  
McIntosh amp choice
How much is your budget? 
Naim Uniti Core
I just recently purchased this combo and love it.  Recommend the Nucleus +. 
Hegel vs Naim vs Creek for DIY speakers
I have Naim and absolutely love the product.  I'm not too familiar with the others but you can't go wrong with Naim in my opinion.  Very well ,made product.
