To much wattage for B & W 805s ??
I pushed my 805 Sig,s with the Mac. 352 amp. 350 per channel and they loved it. It appears that we may listen at about the same level. Never a issue and the sound was effortless.I agree with Rushton in the greater dynamics and the authority the la...

I agree 110 percent with Hooper. The Super Tube Version is all the above and more. Solid State sounding? Not the one I have.

Nakamichi 505 or the Dragon ?
Basement,I really want to play cassettes only (no recording) I am not the "have to align it type" if it does so on it's own great, if not it's not me. I enjoy female vocals, "very" light jazz, and easy listening. Budget? That changes with the weat...
