    Qobuz vs Tidal

    I also have the WXC50 and would like to know how you got gappless Tidal playback. I currently use Bubble Upnp to stream to it.

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    I agree but there isnt much in it, but the q acoustics are only £40 cheaper here (gloss black) so i ended up buying the bx2s due to positioning restrictions i have (front ports being the sensible option) their old school look and our lass probly hates their size lol! (my hifi my rules!) verdict...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    Thanks, i am going to go back and audition the 2020i and compare them to the bx2s. If they have that same something or better i will definately go for them, ill go tonight since the black ones are on special order. I too found the bx2s were less musical than the bx1s and the zensor 1...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    I agree! They would be perfect with a little more bottom end, i feel no one will buy anything else if they were priced right! I always run a flat eq, mainly because the m38 only has bass and treble adjustments and they colour the sound. I find it a bright system and tuning with the speakers is...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    I too found the dalis had a very nice sound but no bottom end, the bx1 had loads of punch for their size but the bx2's had it all really. They didnt have the 2020is for me to test but i think for their price they are probably the better buy for a small sized speaker especially if you prefer them...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    Well thanks everybody for your help, i went to richer sounds in middlesbrough - its nice n close to where im working at the moment. I tested out the dali zensor 1, monitor bx1 and bx2. I think each of them sound excellent, the dalis had real clarity, the bx1s sounded absolutely fantastic and i...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    Thanks for that, i bought some cable from maplins since the speakers didnt come with any, im not sure on the guage to be honest, think its more than 2.5mm2 but it is ofc. What would you recommend since im splashing out lol, my furthest speaker run isnt more than 5m, could i just double up on...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    Wow the 2020i's got a storming review! Also noticed they are £20 dearer than when reviewed! Have any of you had any experience with these? Not keen on their looks to be honest but the price is very appealing! I have some good suggestions to try now, i like the idea of the front firing ported...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    I was looking into getting a sw-150 since it has a great review here and many have paired it with the denon. I tried the eq settings but i find the quality to lack a bit - this could be the f107's not reproducing as natural as i'd like. Maybe the Dali zensors with tweaked eq might sound much...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    Thank you for your very speedy response! I'll take a look at those, I like the idea of having Diamonds since they are a company established close to where I live - a bit of northern pride I guess! Cheers edit - the price can creep above the 200 note mark if the speakers have good bang for buck...

    Denon dm38DAB Speaker suggestions

    Hi I'm new here and need advice! I bought an M38DAB with a pair of denon sc-f107 speakers a year ago, I actually love the clarity but feel they are missing on the bass, I use flat settings at moderate volumes. Are there any stand mount / bookshelf speakers around the £200 area that are weighted...
