Which kind of amp and speakers do you have in your HiFi setup?

[Holt]

I have an AV Receiver amp in the Pioneer VSA-LX805 amp which has been liked to a high-end integrated Hi-Fi amp that goes with B&W FPM6 speakers. I use it for TV sound, HiFi sound and Blu-ray.

So I would be very interested to know now I am into Hi-Fi stereo setups which amp and speakers you guys are using, so I can look them up. I am doing this out of curiosity to begin but to also widen my knowledge and possibilities for future setups of my own.

So what’s your combination of amp and speakers?

A stereo integrated one....

I like the look of them. Probably just topped the list of floorstanding speakers I want, how they look and review. 👍

It's amusing to think I've got 6x class A mono blocks...

... aka: active speakers.

I was reading the other day that the Denon X1800 is basically a Denon X2800h without a few features that most people don’t need. If I was buying a Denon again I would buy the X1800. 👍

Looks an awesome combination! 👍

As I'm headphones only, just my Pathos Converto Mk2. BTW, if you have nice headphones, don't underestimate the benefits of driving them with a high quality head amp.

Denon make excellent sounding AVs and doodle to setup.
My old Denon was higher end, bigger and heavier build, my poor back screamed every time I picked it up but X1800 betters it in sound.
