Hi all!
I apologize the lamest subject ever! But, this is in real life. This very forum got me thinking last winter that is there atually differences between CD-players. So I read a lot and found out there indeed is. I tested the hypothesis by buying a Marantz CD6005 -player. And oh-oh-oh boy there was a huge difference. I got rid of my old, very old (like 25 years) Pioneer CD -player immediately.
Plot thickens. I continued wondering if stereo amplification would be the way to listen best the already so very albums I have. So I got my self a NAD 316CEE for a test. I was surprised very positively! I did not buy it, because my home theatre amp (Marantz 6007) had a decent stereo reproduction. Or that was how I thought at that point of time.
Two days ago I got myself a NAD 356 CEE for a test drive. I have till monday. I earlier this evening finished building a two-amps-one-speakers-setup and it is working, sorry the expression, bloody well, marvellous indeed.
Right this momen Van Halens 1984 is playing through the stereo amp and it is simply the first run I hear the album it was meant to be, only after some 30 years later! So great thing I never gave up searching & testing. My speakers are Dali Icon 6 Mk2 & 2 subs Jamo 660s. All connected & oh my!
Big thanks to everyone here in the forum! You have no idea how much happiness you brought to my life.
Music is the purest drug for your brain!
With gratitude, Tatu
