hi! i'm looking for a replacement for my good old nad 3100. speakers are epos m12.2. (which i love) . when i bought 3100 back in 1994 i also purchased Rogers Ls3 (or something if not mistaken) monitors .. around 2000 i sold the speakers because i needed the money and after a number of speakers, i finally bought m12.2 lately...what i notice is that i get muddy sound from nad (even after having changed ALL capacitors with bigger Nippon ones ), ok epos are musical but i need more detail and a clearer sound from my amp. please suggest some integrated (NOT Nad, again) to match my epos speakers and get detailed sound . music played is old (classic/psychedelic/prog etc) rock up to mid 70s, jazz, and classical. so i want a both mild/soft and detailed sound . not with grease/mud (how else can i explain) that i get from nad..
i'd consider even a second-hand purchase in case it is in pristine condition , else a brand new boxed amplifier would be fine. (suggestions on e-stores would be highly appreciated)
some models i'm interested in are : roksan kandy K2, Nain XS (second-hand maybe), creek evo/evo2/destiny. densen b100 (used).
i have marantz cd 5003 player and i like the marantz sound , dunno if i can combine it with a marantz amp and get the sound i want..
finally i'd like the new amp (priced max £1000)
to be able to handle large amounts of current, reason is that i'm moving to a new bigger
house next year, so maybe i'll get some new floorstanders (it would be
wise to keep the amp that i will buy now)
