Hello folks
In a few months time, it's my intention to set up a new Hi Fi system. I've been out of the scene for quite some time, so please excuse my ignorance. I have an old Rega Planar 3, and it seems like I'm going down the path of having the Inspire upgrade. I used to have a system based on my aforementioned Rega, Denon DCD500 disc player, a Kenwood KA660 amp, and a pair of Kef Concord speakers. To me, it was a system that I was very happy with. The bass in particular was a real feature. It never boomed, and was always controled and tight, but the 'wummff' was truly amazing, to my ears. Having said that, the treble was really crisp, and vocals were very engaging. It had a real 'springyness' if you get my meaning? All in all, I loved it The amp handled it with ease. So, at this stage, I'm drawn towards the Marantz 6005cd player, based on their musicality, the Marantz 6005 amp, as I'm partially persuaded by the compatibilty, and the Tannoys, Revolution DC6T's. I've not actually heard any of these, so it's all based on impressions, price and reviews. What I'm looking for, is pretty much what I had, something that will give me nice crisp tones, and plenty of 'wummff' when required. Any thoughts on my initial selections? Oh yes, it has to look good too, as I have to get it by swmbo
Cheers...Freddy
