A nice idea, but you missed a couple things....

Each B&W Nautilus requires four channels of amplification, so you need 28 of them! Oh, and for the amps, you might want to consider the 33's if you could even find 28 of then for sale, maybe even the new 53's when they come out! I LOVE the Joule amps, but if you had 28 of them in one room, you couldn't possibly have a large enough HVAC system to make the room livable!

I would also go for the ML 502 over the 40, it's newer, and actually $2K less, it has HDMI 1.2 in's so it can utilize MCPCM audio from HD DVD and Blu-ray. I'd also tack on the EMM Labs CDSD SE and DAC6e SE for an SACD player and of course, the new Transparent Cable Opus MM2 cables throughout (speaker cables start at ~$32K for 8 feet)

belive me,i work with B&w loudspeakers every day even with the Nautilus and they are excelent speakers,but the tads have something special...
you can check our store in Lisbon at the site www.hificlube.net we are importers for B&W, Classe, Rotel, Nuforce,Hegel and Linn.

raoc801,

I was just checking out your shop, you have some great gear there and it is all very well displayed. I wish I knew of your shop a year ago when I was in Lisbon, we could have taken a bike ride and listened to some tunes!!!

Yes, the ML502 would be the better choice. Especially in this HDMI HD world we live in.
