Thanks I'll check Ebay.

Just my SACD player.

The subs power the speakers as well so the owner says a preamplifier required. Regards.

I am thinking of buying a second hand pair of Audio Smile Kansai Plus Advantage which are the speakers with dedicated subs. This means I would need a preamp which I have never needed before so I have zero knowledge. My SACD is a Marantz SA-11S3. I am told this is an active speaker with single...

Your comment seems barbed. Why would someone not use an ATC amp with a Marantz SACD? I did not enter the forum to receive veiled criticism so it you have nothing positive to add please post on an alternative thread.

Most speakers I can get ex demo/second hand. I can demo but not in my own home. That's the trade off of saving a few k.

I play cd/sacd only. All types of music.

Hello NP Evo 2. £2000. I appreciate I have to listen myself but wanted thoughts on speakers that could be a good fit for a marantz Atc como. Dont have to be stand mounts.

I am changing my Avalon Acoustics speakers after 10 years. I fancy a change and want some advice. I have a high end marantz sacd and an Atc amp. I was thinking of Harbeth, Russel k or the dynaudio special 40. Has anyone had any similar set ups ? Budget about 2k and happy to buy ex demo/second hand.
