Thanks all for your thoughts.
Thought I'd ask. I got a friend who advised me against BWs saying that they aren't good speakers and are overpriced, and that audiophiles won't buy this brand.
Based on my memory of cremonas, they were warm sounding and had great natural vocals.
I should hop down to the local dealer to hear these.
Slept on it last night and wonder if I should go ahead with the 802d3 and then if possible change the 805s to something nice from sonus, like the guarneri.
What are the shortcomings of the amatis against the 802d3s? Perhaps lower end not as deep, smaller soundstage, darker sound? How about the timbral quality and airiness? Will look out for it when I do go hear them.
800d3 paired with classe sigma monos really sounded airy in its high end with tight bass. Same speakers m601s with naim preamp sounded so so.
Perhaps 802s with c2500 will make it more textured and life like.
