what is the best amp for B&W 802N

Hi. I just bought B&W 802N. And I'm using MF-A3.2cr. Should I get a more powerfull MF or Krell. I can list my amp for sale and get more power. Looking for used one, and want to spend $2k on 2ch amp.
THANKS.

your amp is fine. unless you are going to double the power, the mf is a nice match.

You could chuck your pre-amp and amp and get a KW500 integrated.

I'd say, do a lot of research, & probably up your budget to power N802's. And maybe start thinking Mono-blocs. Bryston 7BST or SST's might be the least expensive. And possibly Classe? But don't skimp on the power, or the quality.

I biamp with the A3CR on top and the A300CR on the bottome. This gives me plenty of power, and its easy since they have the same gain. You can pick up a used A300 for what you want to spend.
