Best amp for B&W 802 speakers


I have a Bryston 4B ST amp and BP 25 preamp. I am wondering if there are any recomendations out there for B&W 802 speakers for amps and preamps. I listen to female vocalists and jazz and would like to clean up the sound detail. I have a Meridain 588 CD player and a Cal Audio Labs CL-10 multi disc as well. I use Harmonic Truthlink interconnects and Zu Wax speaker cables. I am installing a Audio magic power conditioner and having a dedicated circuit added to my sound room. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Sim audio will give you a nice glowing smooth sound. Arcam is comming out with mono's with the FMJ line and their stuff is always properly priced and damn fine sounding, but maybe a little dry for the B&W's. Musical Fidelity worked for us in the past but a tad polite and reigned in. Jeff Rowland is always a great suggestion if the funds are avliable, but I suspect you can get very close to that level with considerably less money that you can use to attend concerts and buy music. Really depends on how big your room is and what kinda music you listen to. If classical you need the Sim, if a nice mix like jazz and accoustical works audition the Arcam as it might just light your fire with vocal music. Besides Arcam is getting better and better at what they do.
