looking for amp for b&w d's

Forums

Hello, I'm new to this forum although I have been following along for some time now. This is my first post here, and I knew that being an audio lover, yet not savvy yet with the audio language, that if any help would be received, it would be here. So first, I thank you all for this great community of audiophiles.

I owned the B&W CM9 until recently... My father gave me his set that he no longer needed because my parents moved to a new home and they did not feel like setting the whole place up acousticly again, at least for now. So we switched, he gave me his B&W 803D...

A Chance Encounter with Planet Waves

Since <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/the_room_today/">the transformation</a> of my living room into a listening room, my record collection has been a woeful, helpless mess. Albums are grouped together more by my fleeting mood or by date of purchase than by anything usefully intelligible, or at all resembling order, such as genre or artist name. If, on some strange and rainy Saturday, I happened to have listened to albums by Mal Waldron, Crazy Horse, and Beach House, these albums will be found shelved together.

Remastered CD question

The Cure have just released a remastered version of their seminal album Disintegration.

Along with the CD, they have also offered a Vinyl version.

My question is, would the vinyl release use the same remastered source as the CD? Is a concurrent Vinyl reissue of a remastered release normally handled / processed differently?

(i'm waiting for the record to compare to the CD myself) : )

Levinson 333 and Wilson Sophia 1's

I have the opportunity to aquire a pair of Wilson Sophia 1's but I also have been reading in the various forums that the Sophia's perform exceptionally better with tubed amplification than with solid-state amplification.

I forsee no problems with the Levinson 333 mated with the Sophia's considering the amp puts out 300 w/ch at 8ohms.

Any advice or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mark Evans
