I currently have Denon DM31 and Quad 11L speakers. Now that the new Cyrus CD6 SE is out there are some goods deal on the "old" CD6S, so have just been to Sevenoaks (£399 new) to listen the CD6S + 8VS amp through my Quad speakers
I have to say I was disappointed. Sure there was a whole lot of new detail dug up - particularly midrange and treble, but I found that there was less bass - or it felt less balanced because the music was much more at the top end and I found the treble so forward and bright sometimes it bordered on harshness
Obviously this is my own opinion but I'd be interested to hear other people's thoughts. The other kit I aim to listen to is the Arcam Solo Mini which perhaps will give a more "balanced" sound
