    Music streaming from AVR

    Thanks everyone for your input. I suppose the simple question is should I buy a dedicated streamer / DAC or make use of the demons streaming capabilities? To answer - I’m not interested in using the ore out RCA directly into the Roksan I feel that would defeat the object of buying a premium amp...

    Music streaming from AVR

    I can though the pre out of the Denon but then I’ll be subject the Denon pre amp and DAC which would not be up to it for the Roksan and speaker.

    Music streaming from AVR

    Hi all This is a bit of a complicated question so bare with me. I am going to buy a separate integrated amp something like a Roksen Blak to power my MA gold G5 200 speakers rather than my Denon X6400H. My question is where I will need to buy a dedicated music streamer of if I can use the...

    Warm sounding or forward sounding??

    Sorry jumboo I don’t think I made myself very clear in my post. We both have the same amp but mine is the more powerful version with the better room eq (audessey) just really trying to establish the characteristics of his f4/lyd speakers so I have a starting point when researching new...

    Warm sounding or forward sounding??

    I should also point out that this will be and is part of a surround system on both our houses and they are both running from AVR. Mine is the much higher spec AVR 6400 and his is the lower pewter 2600 so the superior sound is def nothing to do with the amp

    Warm sounding or forward sounding??

    Hi all I am in the early process of researching speakers to replace my current tannoy revolution signature dc6t speakers. I am told these are very forward sounding and I get that. They are very bright and in your face. I recently went to my father in laws and he has some old audiovector F3/lyd...

    Need to upgrade from my Pioneer LX85

    OK, so from information I have received from people in regarding upgrading my Tannoy Revolution Signature Speakers - It seems it would be more sensible to keep my speakers and upgrade my amp. My current amp is a Pioneer SC-LX85, and although I have been happy with it for TV, Movies and Muic on...

    Time from an upgrage from Tannoy Revolution Signature

    Hi ellisdj - thank you for your response. Well that is a big factor perhaps.....He has his speakers powered through a Quad audio Sterro amp. My speakers are powered by a Pioneer AV receiver which although is frowned upon for stereo listening, it is a high end 200 pound amp. The other thing which...
