Without breaking the bank, have a look at the Arcam PA240s which have just been released. It’s not a Dan DAgostino but I’ve always found Arcam Class G complements B&W well. 2000 pounds gets you 225W into 8 and 390W into 4. Switch to mono and you get 790W into 8. Gives you 50W of Class A. And doesn’t run hot.
The B&Ws get better and better bass control the more power you give it. Even if you don’t need to play loud.
I still think the Ref6/Dan amps are magic with the 800s. But the Denon needs to go before the 800D3s will shine.
