Over the last 18 years, I needed to change 2 channels because they went bad; I sent to Bryston who replaced quickly each time.
When I bought the 802D3, I was thinking about pairing them with Bryston 7B3s but my dealer only had the 4b3 for audition. After extended audition time with 4b3 and MC611s, and MC452s, I decided to go with MC611s to drive the 802D3s.
I currently have the Marantz 8805A for pre-amp and surround processor. I am looking at a dedicated Pre-Amp which can be used as pass-through to the 8805A, and am looking at C52 or C2600. Would appreciate your thoughts on the SP4 as 2 channels pre-amp and/or as surround processor.
Thanks.
