Sect Posted August 4, 2022 Posted August 4, 2022 Anybody know about this amplifier? is it good match of B&W 805S or 805D3
georgehifi Posted August 4, 2022 Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) @Sect No problems, it's solid state it will be fine. Only if it were tube the it "could" have trouble if the epdr (worst low impedance) of the B&W's is savage. Just added https://www.stereophile.com/images/317BW805fig01.jpg The nominal impedance is 8 ohms; the solid trace in fig.1 reveals that the magnitude drops below 8 ohms between 100 and 750Hz and above 8kHz, with minima of 4.6 ohms at 180Hz and 22kHz. The electrical phase angle (fig.1, dotted trace) is occasionally extreme, with combinations of 6 ohms and –35° at 118Hz and 8.2kHz. Tube amplifiers will probably work best with this speaker when used from their 4 ohm output-transformer taps. Cheers George Edited August 4, 2022 by georgehifi
bill resvanis Posted March 1 Posted March 1 i'm a little late to this; but how do you think it will be with Harbeth p3esr? Thanks!!!
