Hello everybody...premier post so here we go.
I was thinking about buying an Arcam A85 for my 'soundsystem' instead of my NAD.
I love my set-up but since getting the sub (which I love, fuller-sounding quiet listening and reggae as it's meant to be heard!) the overall sound is coming across abit 'warm', sometimes mushy and slightly soft/slow. I like a musical sound, and I think what my kit lacks is 'air and spaciousness' and some pace.
Is it that all my components veer towards a richer tone, and maybe a change to a brighter amp is the way forward?
I had an Arcam Solo-mini before and liked the presentation, the rega brio 3 I had before that lacked a bit of substance for me. Current available funds are low - £300ish.
Ecclectic music to be catered for from Daft Punk, A Tribe called Quest, Neil Yong, etc etc.
What dya' reckon...?
