High End Integrated Choices

I had posted earlier but haven't seen it so here goes again.

Need to make a shortlist of hi-end integrateds to match the following system:

Sony SCD777ES SACD Player, Acoustic Zen Matrix Ref II Interconnects and Satori Speaker cable connected to B&W 805S monitors.

Searching for feedback specifically on BAT V300X SE Integrated withe 6H30 super tube and McIntosh MC2275 Tube Integrated.

Anyone?

Thanks

How about Manley Stingray, Biomimetic? You think that will drive the 805S easily,. Have the chance to pick one up used (as a second amp) at a good price so just thought I'd check.

I have heard them with a pair of Revel's M20s which a lot of people think are more difficult to drive than the 805's. But again, you know, you'd have to see if it suits you. But I would bet yes.

Personally I would go for the Gamut Di150.It is a knockout amplifier.HiFiChoice did a review a few months back,and used a B&W 802D while reviewing.The amp got 95% for sound quality.96% is the highest any product has gotten in HiFiChoice.Hope this input helps.
