    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    With the Rubicon LCR its 100mm clear space underneath them wall mounted or 30mm away from the wall if on shelves or stands I'm assuming it'll be similar for the cores .

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Not really but I went from the Dali Evidence 470 to Rubicon 6, and while I'd had the 470's for 20 years the improvements were spectacular, took me 48 hours to order the vokal and a few weeks later the LCR's as sides. I'd recommend the LCR rather than the 2's as surrounds so you'll get the same...

    Qobuz connect

    Yes but if kit your existing kit can support it why not request a feature update, bluesound for example just rolled out DIRAC room correction and its available on older generations of gear the point is the equipment has the ability.

    I can't see how they cannot, you can't position yourself as a high res streamer and not support both high res platforms, it will affect your sales.

    Question Advise on Analog Bypass on old T747 receiver and upgrade.

    Power Amp Recommendations Please

    Well I like NAD and Rotel so at that price I'd be looking at the NAD C298 and the Rotel RB1582 mk2, but I'd also look at Lyngdorf SDA 2400. The NAD and Lyngdorf are both digital amps although of different types, the Rotel is class A-B but it'll be huge in person and weigh a ton I bet.
