I have had my system around 9 years now.
Arcam Diva A85 AMP
Arcam Diva CD82
Quad 22L speakers
Black Rhodium symphony interconnect
Black Rodium AST speaker cable bi wired
Arcam Ir DOCK FOR I pod
I am looking to spend around 2.5k to replace the existing kit.
I thought that by spending this amount that with the improvement in technology that I would get a much better system, but on visiting my local hifi shop I am now not convinced.
I mainly used the Cd player and I pod for convenience, the I pod will however not be used through the hi fi after listening to the difference lately….yes I got lazy for a little while ;-)
My local shop is very keen to push streamers and suggested the Naim Uniti, or the Linn Majik. Both sounded excellent I have to admit. I am still not sure though that a streamer is the way t go for me. The two mentioned are very expensive on my budget, and I also feel that I would need new speakers too if I went down this route.
Also the Naim Uniti is a one unit affair and I have always had it drummed into me that separates are the way to go.
I considered the cheaper NP30, but of course they scoffed at this as its only £400.
So now I am very confused……any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated.
