I'll take any advice for any amps. Then I'll go and test.

How do the newer B&W 705's compare to the CDM 1NT's, since I'll probably have to test the different amps on the 705's since most stores don't carry the CDM's.

Thanks!
The more the merrier. After hooking up my old PS Audio 200c to my buddies Matrix 3's it was like the earth shook. quite literally! You should look for an amp that can deliver high current.
