I run the N802 in my studio (I requested the VERY last pair made - to my surprise they came in cherrywood - SWEET!). In my previous room I swore to the CHORD amps with the 802 but then moved into my new room and couldn't believe the lack of detail. So I tested just about every amp we had on hand - including mono blocks of CHORD, BRYSTON, Cello, etc. Finally I settled on the KRELL 600c Class A. BUT they had to be bi-wired before I settled on this. Running single wire was just not enough for these speakers. Once they were in bi-wire mode - everything sang. Now of all the rooms with B&W speakers in them, the engineers come to my room to double check their work.

Cheers.
