My system consists of whats written below.
To be honest i love the system but cannot justify having it in the living room as well as my new Sony DAVIS10 surround system and new Sony Bravia 32" TV; basically as it's not getting used as much as it used to.
I love the system but now feel that its time to minimise and recoup some money (if possible) so im looking to go back to standmount speakers, an integrated amp and a CD player.
I really want to base my system around the B&W 685 speakers (or if i find a decent set on eBay - The B&W 602 S2 speakers) with a Musical Fidelity integrated amp (Ive always loved these amps and have demo'd them a few times years back (the X series) and now want to go down that route by buying a decent one off eBay).
What i would like is some suggestions for a CDP to match these 2 (I will be going for Chord Carnival Silver cable and Chord interconnects).
The music i listen to varies but consists of electronica (Layo & Bushwacka, Underworld, Daft Punk, Air, Moby, Leftfield, Fischerspooner etc...) to House music (Hed Kandi, Eric Morillo, Danny Tenaglia etc...) to Pink Floyd, Bonzo Dog, Jethro Tull and so on.
Bass has to be good, deep (well as much as possible without going daft)and tight, midrange has to be smooth with good vocals and the treble good and crisp but not ear piercing!
All suggestions will grately be received as i'd like to move on this before Chrsitmas (as obviously i need to sell my system via eBay etc and get buying mew new system as well)
Thanks
