Novi sustavi

[brada]

Pozdrav,
Planiram napraviti novi sustav od Arcam A25, Sonus faber lumina 1 i wiim pro. Glazbeni žanr je jazz, ženski vokali i akustična glazba u sobi od 15m², većinom na nižim glasnoćama. Ima li netko iskustva s tom kombinacijom?

Sorry, this is an English forum. You'll need to translate it.

Zdravo,
Planiram izgraditi novi sustav koji se sastoji od Arcam A25, Sonus faber Lumina I i WiiM Pro. Glazbeni žanrovi su jazz, ženski vokali i akustična glazba u prostoriji od 15 m², uglavnom na nižim glasnoćama. Ima li netko iskustva s ovom kombinacijom?

Hello,
I am planning to build a new system consisting of the Arcam A25, Sonus faber Lumina I, and WiiM Pro. The music genres are jazz, female vocals, and acoustic music in a 15m² room, mostly at lower volumes. Does anyone have experience with this combination?"

Hi Brada, thanks for joining this forum.

First, Arcam amp A25 or its new upgraded version Arcam A25+ is very very good amp.
Second, you need proper streamer. WiiM Pro is nice "Toy" for children but truly not on level of Arcam A25. I recommend something like compatible Arcam ST25 streamer. This is very capable duo. If you want to go with WiiM, than WiiM Amp Ultra is optimal amp/streamer choice with very good sound.
Third, speakers. Yes Sonus Faber is good atractive brand, but Lumina 1 is just basic bookshelf. This you may pair with Arcam A5 or even with WiiM Amp Ultra and it will sound very good. But to use cappabilities of amp like Arcam A25, you may choose something like Kef R3 Meta or min. Kef Q Concerto Meta or similar Dynaudio Evoke 20 or Emit 20. And yes Arcam A25 has enough juice to move those demanding speakers. Regards to Poland, our neighbour (I am from Slovakia). BR.

No experience with that combination but what is critical is your choice of speakers.
You need something you can actually audition or your could make an expensive mistake.
How did you arrive at your list of components?

I heard the Lumina 1 live with a Marantz, and they sound beautiful, though perhaps a little warmer because of the amplifier. I started looking for a powerful, slightly more neutral amplifier to drive such demanding speakers, and the choice fell on the Arcam A15. In the meantime, I came across a promotional discount where the Arcam A25 was at an incredible price, even lower than the A15. The Sonus faber speakers suit my tonal preference, but due to my budget, I'm going with the Lumina 1, and probably the Soneto in the future.

The best selection is choice done by yourself to your liking. Trust your ears! BR.
