I've used all the above (except the Cary) but not all at the same time so I am only guessing that they will go well. I did use the SF Line 2 (and 3) with the W-5 successfully.

Simaudio W5 match to SF Line 2
Hello,
I am looking at a Sim W5 as an upgrade (huge upgrade) from my current set up and am looking for some input from those that may have or already do use this amp. I have read reviews and most seem to have positive comments about the W5.
I picked up a Sonic Frontiers Line2 pre not long ago and am now looking for an amp to go with it. My current pre-power is an old NAD 7100 series receiver that has served me well for a good number of years and is still going strong but I think it's time to move on. The following is what I'm thinking of putting together.
What do think of the system match? I do have a chance to pick up a W5 (new in box, full warrantee) for $4650.00 CDN$ (approx. $3900 US$) is this a good deal? Would you jump at it?
Sim W5
SF Line 2
Cary 308 CDP(solid state)
Paradgim 60V'2
Paradgim Servo 15
Nothing special for IC's or cabling as yet, that will come shortly.
Any and all comments welcomed.
Thank you.
