I ordered one of these in silver for my system, and it arrived today so I gave it a work out. I put in some regular CD's that I am used to listening to on my Denon DVD 1600, but none of them really impressed me with the Denon, I always thought there was something missing. Well that is no longer an issue!!!! 8O Right away I could tell there was more to the CD than I was hearing, the detail, FULLNESS my God, seemed so much more tight and controlled than the Denon. Clarity was unbelievable, it was like the person was there playing in my living room. Soooo smooth sounding, the RF-7's just shined, I had the system CRANKED too, just to see if any flaws would show, and it was not stopping, just kept belting out clear as day!
I have never really enjoyed DPLII Music on my Rotel RSP 1098, but now it's a totally different issue, it's so much more pronounced, the pans from left to right, front to back, etc are just flawless, it totally engulfs you. I think I have got my system down now, it's really a whole.
I A/B'd the two players, I put the CD in the Denon and relistened, and then to the Azur, and I could definitely hear the difference, it seemed as the Denon wasn't in control of the music, it wasn't as punchy, detailed and full sounding, the Cambridge really made the music PUNCH, I could feel it in the chest when the bass hit, the bass really is an improvement. I could hear the drum stick hitting the stair drum, just that much more detail I NEVER noticed before. It was well worth the money
Thanks again to Jerry for all the help, adivce, putting up with my PM's, etc Now I have too much crap in my rack :lol:
