Amp Upgrade

[tomorr1949]

My current (ageing) system is Bluesound Vault2, Chord Hugo1 DAC, Roksan Caspian M2, Spender D7.1. Would a new amplifier be a meaningful upgrade?

I think you need to consider what it is you feel is missing from your system at the moment?
What do you want to achieve or is it just upgrade-itis.
Do you have a budget?

Could be upgrade-itis! Some of the inputs aren't working any more on the Roksan and I'm feeding the Hugo into the aux input rather than CD. My thinking was a new amp rather than costly repairs, but I do feel the speakers would benefit from a better amp. Budget £1500 -£1800. Thanks for the reply.

Not seeing any obvious upgrade path there unless you get a used higher end model for your budget. Maybe try repositioning your speakers a little to see if that changes the sound a little in the first instance.
