At present my system comprises of the following equipment: Denon PMA-700ae Amp, Denon DCD-700ae CD, Denon TU1800DAB, Monitor Audio RS6 & QED speaker cable. When I first purchased this system I was initially drawn to the clarity and general bright sound. However..how times change..I now find the overall sound a little too harsh, especially on the treble even though I still appreciate the general clarity I find (especially at slightly higher volumes) the overall sound becomes a little brash.
I have now decided to replace my Denon Pma-700 amp and would kindly appreciate advice on the following ideas:
a: To upgrade current Amp to Denon PMA-1500ae (after some good reviews, but would I end up with the same faults as present?)
b: To Replace Amp With Rotel RA-05 or RA-06 and keep existing denon cd & Tuner. Before I purchased my Denon set-up was equally impressed with the rotel's excellent sound. Just a little cautious of how compatible the rotel would be with the Denon equipment?
Any suggestions or assistance would be most appreciated, as mentioned before I do like a generally bright detailed sound, just would be so much better if it was that little more controlled. Generally listen to music as such from the likes of Sting, Jack Johnson, Snow patrol so to find an solution to make the most of this would be great.
