Hello,
I am about to buy a new integrated amplifier with onboard DAC. Unfortunately where I live I cannot auditionate it. Recently I have discovered nice two offers:
1) Cambridge Audio Stream Magic 6 + 651W for 1 299 Eur
2) Rotel RA 1570 for 1281 Eur
I listen rock, jazz and watch a lots of films. 50/50. I need an amp with integrated DAC with at least 3 digital inputs. At the moment I have:
CD – Denon DCD 725
BD – LG HR550 - 3D
AMP – Sony F245R
Speakers - Magnat victory 6 GBE
TV -LG 50” 3D 50PZ250
Speakers will be the next think to upgrade(will go for floorstanders .. prbl B&W). So here is my question: If it would be your choice, what would you go for? Integrated amp with onboard DAC or separates (using stream magic as digital pre amp)?
Cheers,
Tomas
