Hi Folks,
I'm thinking of upgrading my stereo and was looking at the new Denon M41DAB: It's had great reviews and a lot of my stuff will be played via bluetooth (also have a turntable). However, my budget is actually a little more for the main unit (around £400) so does anyone have any experience of alternatives as the Denon has a couple of things that I'm not fussed for - CD & DAB are nice but could totally live without for better sound.
I'm thinking things like NAD 3020D, Marantz M-CR611, Denon PMA-50, Yamaha WXA-50, or anything like that. I have difficulty finding reviews and don't have a massive audio superstore nearby to do direct comaprisons so any ideas would be nice. If they're an upgrade on the M41 they're worth thinking about, then again, if they don't sound significantly better, I could just save the money or invest in speaker stands or something: ust because the budget is upt o £400, doesn't mean I HAVE to spend it! Anyway, any comparisons or suggestions welcome!
(NB I like these ones cos they're small - Marantz 6006 too big for room)
Thanks!
