B&W 803D or 804D with ML 335

Folks, I am thinking to upgrade my current speakers to B&W 803D or 804D. Can my current amplifier drive them? Is it worth extra $2500 to buy 803D? pls help suggest.

I concur with Joe, the 335 should have no trouble driving them. For speakers, are you talking the brand new series, such as the 803 Diamonds or the previous 803D?

B&W's naming leaves a lot of confusion. The new line are not called D's, such as, 803D's, rather they are Diamonds; the previous versions are D's.

I caution about jumping to the 802's (D's or Diamonds) unless you have a lot of room or you will be disappointed.
