I'm driving the B&W 800 D3 with the Classe Omega Reference monoblock amps and the Classe Omega Reference Mk iii linestage analog preamp. The Omega Reference Mk iii linestage preamp is a two chassis preamp with an external separate power supply unit. This is a pure analog linestage pre and has no DAC of digital circuitry, unlike the recent Classe preamps that are equipped with DAC as in the case with the CP 800 and the recently released Delta Pre. And the Cary CD 306 SACD player served as my digital front end. I previously had the Accuphase before the Cary.
These Classe Omega Reference monoblock amps are big step up sonically and musically from Classe Delta series such as the CAM-600 monoblock amps.
