I have already address your concerns. There are no 'bad guys' here. Spending time reading, searching for answers, re-wording questions so as to convey a better understanding of what is meant; this isn't even close to throwing my weight around. You said it yourself, I'm new to this forum. I have...

I addressed that a few posts back. It's a simple fact that nobody has made any attempt at a clear answer.

There's no hijacking here. I stayed 'on topic' and 'relevant'. You know, you could have tried to be helpful at any point here. Instead, you hide behind this response? Poor show. Shame on you.

Nice use of a smilie to indicate that you are a nice, well meaning guy but I really don't think that the OP got what he was asking for. And neither have I because there's a lot of dodging going on, and nothing in the way of factual answering. There's no deliberate misunderstanding here. He...

That's the trouble with forums on the 'net. If we were all in a pub having this discussion then it'd be a bunch of mates having a laugh, roasting each other over the merits of each other's stance. I'm very old school; if I'm asking questions and trying to look for answers then nobody has any...

With specific regard to the Audiolab 6000A (manual easily viewable online) are you stating that, by using it as a PRE, the DAC is not available to use in an 6000A'PRE'/8300XP setup? The company supplied literature does not suggest this at all. I'm not trying to catch anybody out here. Just...

Just revisiting this reply. These two quotes are part of one sentence and yet... If this is how you feel then that seems to point to the match being good. Both being Audiolab, and gain-matched at 29db. So far so good. And then you add this!? So it's not logical but it's good? The OP then comes...

Like I said, it presents the music that's 'there'. It doesn't try to colour it in any way. I have no experience of the Marantz PM8006 or you small KEFs. You managed to pair an amp that's more expensive and has a bigger output, and different technology (than the 6000a) with KEFs that have a...

I purchased A and N as individual units. The "sound"? That would be hard to describe. The amplifier seems to do neutral very well. You certainly would not say it was warm. Accurate but not clinical. That is to say that I have listened to a lot of music that gives as much as it was engineered...

I've had a play with the Node 2i and it was easy to use. Apparently, it's a fair bit better than the older version. Aesthetically, it shouldn't look to bad with the Audiolab gear if you're getting the darker colour set. Haven't seen their 'silver' so can't comment. As far as gapless playback...

First post and first chance to help out! Sooper! I know that we all have different interpretations of "bass" but, if you're looking for standmount that perform admirably when there is bass in the song then may I recommend a pair of Dali Oberon 3? If the more learned members know of a reason...
