The R300's may be worth a listen at home, but the dealers listening room is a pretty similar shape and they were at least 60cm's from the rear wall. The dealer never mentioned bungs to tune the bass, and it never occured to me either. It did make we wonder how they can succesfully demo much...

Hi Yes Ive heard it recently. I dont have great experience yet in hi-fi, but it sounded really good to me . See here for the demo I had recently http://www.whathifi.com/forum/hi-fi/recenet-demo-of-bw-685-kef-r300-ma-gx50-100-not-available-and-pmc-twenty22 I didn't listen to any other amps at...

Hi, Yes, I'm after a decicated stereo setup. Am prepared tto be patient and think I prefer the DAC route over streamer. Very convenient whilst living alone and using my laptop. The AV can wait a while longer...

Hi Yes. 2 attempts failed so I have written in word!! After the pains of separation came the joys of hi-fi! The current owner of a Pioneer VSX-LX55 and B&W 685’s, I have really enjoyed the huge upgrade in performance form the previous Panasonic Micro system. Before I bought this system I...

Hi Gary Not sure about the bi-amp bit yet, but... I was hugely impressed by the Marantz system, even when compared against the new Marantz PM6004 kit, Arcam dac and A18 and Rega dac and amp. As I was ideally looking for a long term 1 box solution, I have bought a Pioneer VSX-LX55, but up to...

I'm not sure I know how to be gentle, but I dont have much experience or kit as you! My interpretation of reciever's with 2 hdmi out's is that they will do exactly what you want, and if you've got the budget to look at the Yamaha's you mention, I don't think you'll have a problem getting one...

Nice one Chris, Sounds like a great deal, nice haggling and quite possibly a better bet than the Pioneer. I wanted to demo your amp, but didn't have the patience/time to travel and listen to one after hearing the Pioneer!

If you do decide do like the Pioneer, do you yourself a favour and look a bit harder for the right price. It is possible to spend less than £750 on a new one as I have just done. Think Quidco and Best buy, and quickly

Will someone please tell me the secret to avoid continuosly double posting? Sorry, AGAIN

For what its worth, I felt thst the mcr603 and the Rega dac/amp were at the same same level listening to mp3 and flac files through B&W 685's. After demo'ing the VSX LX55 ( only in stereoi) (AV reciever, to save me buying two boxes) with the same speakers (which I bought), I've no doubt that...

So I've just put my wallet where my mouth is and bought one of these. Coming Tuesday. Woohooo!

I added it to my cart, entered the discount code from said website and my basket shows a reduction of £59.85. I haven't followed through as I dont want to buy it (been seduced by the VSX-LX55) but if your after this amp, why not check it out? Total price of £339.14, so I see your point about...
