I had the oppurtunity to audition some audio components from the following makers in different combinations.

Amplifiers: NAD, Rotel, Cambridge Audio, Musical Fidelity
Speakers: B&W, PSB, Monitor Audio

I went for a NAD and Monitor Audio combination. But my 2 cents for you is that B&W speakers do sound very bright (thats why I avoided them). I am also very sure of this as I tried auditioning them at three different dealerships. please look into changing the speakers. To my knowledge Musical Fidelity A5s are very good.
