I listened to the 600 wpc monos with the B&W 802diamonds and the music just effortlessly oozed out of the speakers into the room.
Then they tried to tell me how good the Rotel gear was and it would be hard to tell the difference for the money. WRONG! They used the latest Rotel Separates and CDP driving the B&W803Ds and the same music struggled to get out of the speakers compared to the Mc System.
The 3rd setup they had was with the Mc 3channel amp driving Sonus Faber Olymipca IIIs which was also very nice but I did not get to spend enough time with that setup to hear what all the rave on the Olympicas is all about. I thought the 802Ds sounded pretty damn good but I suppose if the SFs were driven with the 600wpc monos, they would have shined better.
