Hi, I am choosing stereo amp for a pair of Dali Concept 1.
I am not sure which brands are a good match for Dalis :help:
I have chosen a few amps I thought might be good. Price should be up to 300€, a little more is acceptable :bounce: (all my choices are 300-400€ :rofl
my first choices:
- Yamaha A-S500
- Yamaha R-S700 receiver (tuner and preout+mainin, better remote) but very similar to A-S500, small price difference
second choices (more expensive unit or other separates to have one brand system):
- Harman Kardon HK980
- Cambridge Audio Azur 350A
- Marantz PM6004 - pretty expensive for my budget (450€)
I like Yamahas, the style and the company but I cannot audition them I can audition HK980 but I never like their style (yes yes I know I will be listening to it, not watching on it but still :wave
Which of these is a good match for Dali speakers? I plan later on buying cd and network/usb/disc player (with flac) and Yamaha has a CD-N500 and plays CD and flac from USB and network. I would have to buy separates player with different brand
