So, using an old Arcam CD73T and also squeezebox through DacMagic 2 as source, with Kef IQ5SE speakers.
Looking for a decent amp to match these. The Arcam CD player is detailed but 'warm', which I like, and the KEFs are quite bright speakers as you all know. I listen to rock, vocal and jazz and like a detailed presentation and soundstage and lean towards liking a warm sound with crisp treble and a decent bass thump. About to retire an old Kenwood KA-3020SE amp that has served well.
What is the latest incarnation of the A-A6 like (the so-called 'tuned by air' revamped version) ?
The £300 Marantz?
Cambridge Audio offerings? I'm a bit worried will be too bright though, matched with my IQ5SEs
Any recommendations?
