nothing is wrong with Creek, however seems that it has no sub out, the dac or phono are sold as perates. In terms of performances, I know that doesnt mean anything, who is better: Creek 100a, Arcam A39, Rotel 1592?

Well was thinking about a streaming + dac as for instance pioneer or Cambridge audio, however seems that they both have old dac chip..budget for dac around 800/900, amplifier i check on second hand, budget 1800/2000

What's about dac, should I take a separate one?

hi guys, went for demo, EPOS tower and Harbeth P3ESR, M30.1 and SLH5, here my impressions. Epos, well balanced, fast drivers but not so open. Harbeth P3ESR overall very very good, refined high, super dynamic, decent bass that doesnt go so deep, but amazing sound for the size. Habeth M30.1...

Ok, had fun in the last 3 pages, very good points and classy touch of irony. Leaving the 1200 for a later upgrade, with the money I sell it back I can buy a Rega p3 or more second hand, I think I will go for listen some amplifiers on Saturday. Arcam a49 tried weeks ago and is not open for my...

was talking about my system in general, playing digital source on Yamaha, turntable is another problem

Well, the disappointing part is the muddy bass and uninspiring mid-range. I can live with the highs, they are quite refined, not forward anyway. Problem is that drivers are not in control, and I believe is as well due to to the Ceramic constrution. Then there is the other part, the amplifier is...

Being honest is the minimum, you are here asking for advices and welcome criticism, when you invest money you try to get the best value possible with a given budget.. I came here to share my experience,, reading review don't make you an expert and when you have finally bought what you though was...

Focal here are easy to find, you can listen the aria almost in supermarket chain, to be honest I listen them years ago and I was not impressed, not so musical for my taste and high not pronunciated. Harbeth never listen, tried to find something in YouTube and seems they have something in common...

Should I start to upgrade the amplifier or it is better to listen again new speakers?. I mean from what I see the amplifier is one of the main problem here, however having audiotiomed recently MA 500 with NAD, marantz, better Yamaha, arcam I don't think that MA are decent with rock, of course...

well well, after posting couple of weeks ago about my current issue, dealing with MA Silver 8, Yamaha rn500 and a Technics turnatable Sl1200mk5, I am back for advices. I am planning to restart from zero, so I will find a way to get rid of my current set, mint conditions :) What is bad: 1MA...

good point about MA that are probably too flawed, starting to think that these speakers will never be able to have the dynamic I am looking for and a well controlled punch in the low and middle. I am little bit sad as I really like them, sounds is very open, high are well refined, but pairing...

Went for a demo, I had the opportunity to test MA Silver 500 (new model) with Arcam A39, NAD C326BEE, Marantz PM8600 and Yamaha a-s1100. As streaming we used Bluesound Node 2, this should be a good DAC/Streamer, 32BIT 192Khz. Unforunately I didnt had time to play so loud as there was not a...

I have had Dali, Zensor 7, well the woofers were bigger than mine in MA SIlver 8, half inch probably, they sounded really good with blues, reggea and rap, terrible with rock, drivers were not precise, missing notes etc.. now for what I understood speakers sound differently with different typo of...

hi Amormusic, which type of musi do you listen? does the Arcam produce a dynamic sound with MA? Can you play rock and bass are well driven? whats about soundstage? Thank you, Regards, Beppe
