Thanks Josh, I hate the hi-fi racks... at the moment I'm using two cheap IKEA furniture, out of production at the moment. Probably I will upgrade it soon with a custom design forniture.
I'm using simple concrete platform with rubber or spikes.
Yes, I use the NuForce and Maggie combo with satisfaction in these months. I find the right tonal balance with these. Now I upgraded with Mark Levinson 436...:))
I find in the K1 the natural evolution of the B&W sound. No cabinet coloration, no dynamic compression...the sound is really free from the speakers. In regards of the classic B&W sound the Vivid have more neutrality in the midrange section and a smooth high section.
Yes is the series ONE edition. They are really different from the 801, the 800s had a smooth midrange and a big, big soundstage. These big sculpture need a powerfull amplification and sound better in bi-amp configuration. I adjust the bass aligment with my TacT digital eq. for a really deep bass.
Arkprof, the 800s has a really big soundstage with a huge dynamic range. But I love these monuments because of the ability to reproduce any little detail with precision... No other big speakers can do it as the 800s. The mid/high range have a extraordinary precision without any hardness, the bass section is very strong but never without control... I hope to enjoy these speakers for many years..

The Nordost BlueHeave have a realy trasparent sound & a deep rock bass. But I use only one meter of cable for speaker this lay out minimize the cable influence.
