Adcom 555II with B&W 700 series

[Trevor]

I was wondering if anyone has heard or has used an adcom amp with the 700 series? I am using an Adcom 555II to power my 604 s3 and it sounds good, but I know that the 700 series is more detailed than the 600 series. Do you think the 700 series will pick up more distortion than the 600 series?

In the future I will upgrade my amp but for right now paying for tuition and books is more important.


THanks for any suggestions

I use adcom amplification, 5802/5503/5400. I made the choice when comparing adcom to rotel ~8 yrs ago. There was a subtle difference and to me, the adcom sounded better. Adcom has a bad reputation on this site, due to rotel biased. Let your ears make the decision for you.

I use the 5500 with 703's and I am very satisfied. Much more so than my RMB-1075.

I originally had an Adcom amp with Infinity Kappa speakers. For years I was very satisfied with this combination. When I recently upgraded to the more revealing Nautilus speakers I found the Adcom amp to have a fatiguing glare to it. Switching out for the warmer Rotel solved that problem for me.
