Hi,
I am new to this forum, and am in need of some guidance / opinions on what system to get. I already have a small Denon receiver, but it's sound quality is limited, and therefore I want to get a new system that will improve the stereo listening ( music ). My budget is 2000 to 3200$US ( 2500 - 4000$CND ), and basically what came out to fit my budget were:
- an Audio Refinement Pre-2 DSP ( with the PLII upgrade ) and the AR. Multi5 ampilfier, both brand new for 3400$CND ( 2700$US or so )
- A Rotel RSP-1068 and RMB-1075 for 3475$CND ( 2800$US )
- Or a Nad receiver, the T773 , and a stereo amp, the C272, for 3300$CND ( 2640$US ).
- I've also seen a Cambridge Audio ( Azur 540R ) that seems interesting, since it is not that expensive, I could use the rest of the money to buy a better amp, and then upgrade the pre/pro at a later time.
I listen to 75% music, and 25% movies, and my fronts are a paire of DIY floorstandings, each with two Vifa Premium Line woofers and one Vifa tweeter. I plan to change the speakers in about a year or less for some with all ScanSpeak drivers. What would you recommend from the three setups, or are there other setups that any of you can recommend within my limited budget? I know it is important to listen to each of them, but I would also like to know what others think of these, or any experiences they had with them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
