My current set up is a quad cdp_2 which helpfully provides three functions for me, 1. a cd player, 2. a dac and 3. pre-amp. All the inpts are digital. Outputs to head amp, quad 99 power amp and Dynaudio audience 52 speakers on Partington dreadnought stands
I've been hankering after a change of speakers and come close a few times, but price and indecision have stopped me.
The indicision is what I could do with help on.
Option 1 would be a conventional speaker and there are many, but my budget would't extend beyond £300 plus the sale of my dynaudios - could I get a reasonable upgrade at that price
Option 2 would be to sell the speakers and the amp, use the extra funds and reduce the box count with an amplified speaker.
What are my options and what would give the best results? How much would I need to spend to see a decent improvent? The AVI's look an exciting option, I'm a fan of AVI anyway and the drivers seem to me to be dynaudio sourced.
