Thanks guys for your recommendations! Received my speakers in January, the 802s are breaking in nicely, mids and highs are an immediate step up from my old speakers, bass is also coming along quite well.
I have started auditioning pre and pro, demo Ayre, McIntosh, Bryton and Accuphase so far. Will demo Esoteric, Octave, Pass Labs, ARC and Gryphon next week....I feel like a kid in a candy store, too many good gears, wish I could have them all but I can only pick one~
So far, Accuphase is leading the pack..will report back on my final choice and my thoughts on them. Thanks again for all of your assistance!
