Hi everyone :D,
I am an italian violin player felt in love with the HiFi wolrd.
After changed many times components of my chain finally I am very happy of this elements:
loudpeakers: Opera Quinta SE
cd player: Audia Flight FL3S
turntable: Pro-ject X1
cables: Ricable Magnus
and what about amplifier?
Well, I recently sold Audia Flight FL3S; it has a pleasant good sound but very less dynamics for my ears :cry:.
After a lot of listening session I focused my mind on Yamaha AS2200 and Naim XS3.
Unfortunately there's no way to listen them in the same shop.
I like the beautiful sound of Yamaha and its skill to reveal every detail from low to high frequencies.
Naim seems to have a little forward sound but sometimes low frequencies are dirtier than Yamaha and some instruments, like grand piano or the snare drum, seems to play too metallic; working in a big theatre I know very well how those instruments are able to play.
Moreover I know Naims amplifiers, produce some noises even without any sources connected; it should be very annoying :disappointed:
Thanks in advance for each advice you will want to give me.
Greetings from Italy :)
