Marantz KI Pearl Lite + SCM11 or SCM19?

[Tim2010]

Has the KI Pearl Lite Amp enough power to drive the SCM11 or SCM19?

Anyone heard Marantz together with ATC speakers?

Of the what hifi review and it states 200 w into 4 so i guess 100 into 8 ohm so then based on that yes they would be able to drive them

Best to demo first though

It's just to use for a couple of months ... looking around for new amp from Rega, Hegel, Roksan.

Read in another topic that Hegel/ATC is a good combination.

Hegel or Abrahamsen will drive most ATC's nicely. You just have to make sure the speakers will suit your room. If they don't then it doesn't matter what amplifier you use.

Problem is I can get a good deal for ATC-speakers right now (and optional Rega Elicit-R or Elex-R), but can't audition them before the deal ends...

How does the Hegel compare to the Rega Elicit-R.

So what I wanted to do was, order the speakers and use them with my Marantz for a couple of months ... until I made a decision which amp to choose: Rega, Hegel, higher end Marantz, Nad,...

Play all my ripped cd's and hi-res downloads now from Bluesound Vault 2-player + NAS > to DAC of my KI Pearl Lite with B&W685 speakers.

The initial plan was to keep the Marantz amp and buy higher end DAC (chord hugo or chord hugo tt) and B&W-speakers (CM6S2, CM5S2), but I read so many mixed reviews on the B&W's + no idea my amp is capable of driving them.

The few local dealers we got here have not the stuff I want to audition, and some others sell mainly 'mainstream' brands + couple of outdated Rega/Marantz/Denon players at the full price.

The Elicit R is a very clean transparent amp

The Elicit R drives the SCM 19s very well - my friend Richard has this comob and it sounds very nice !

He does not post on here but if you do a search you will find him

I am considering trying some 11s with my Elicit R to see how they compare to my Kudos in my room

They are a quality speaker - if you live near Derby then Rick @Musiccraft has all the drivers to show you they weigh a ton - just quality

Nope, not living in the UK

I think I finally made more or less my decision in terms of amp: Hegel H160 or Hegel H360.

What's the difference, except more power? Better DAC? I see the description of Hegel H360 mentions DSD. While DAC specs for Hegel H160 are pretty vague?

I'm planning to connect my Bluesound Vault 2 with coax to Hegel-amp.

How to stream directly from Hegel-amp with the network connection? Is there an App to use with Android/IOS? I only could found info about Airplay, but nothing else... Can I stream directly from Tidal, Qobuz to the Hegel, or do I need my Bluesound for that?

They should drive the ATC's perfectly. Any other speakers recommended with Hegel, although I got my mind set on ATC

Imo the best pairing..
I love my h360 but im even thinking once i get the atcs they might be the real star.

We all love our brands and want to justify our purchase so only you can decide.
But ill give a 100% go for it for the 360/atc combo
