Hi:
I am new to this forum. I curently have B&W N804 fronts, HTM2 center, SCM1 surrounds and a sub. My equipment is Rotel 1066 processor, Rotel 1075 5 channel amp, Denon 3910 DvD, Rotel 1072 CD, DTVHD, audioquest cabling, Monster 5100 power conditioning.
Music is the over-riding desire including Music DVD's, and movies are nice but are not the main concern. I want detail and musical sound quality, but do not want it to become shrill or overly bright. The voice and midrange are important and Classe has been suggested. I want musicality and detail without much color, but do not want it analytical and without feeling. Technically correct music without feeling is missing something.
I want to upgrade my amp and processor. I will probably do the amp first. I am also looking into an Anthem D2 processor. I am considering a 5 channel amp, but am also strongly considering two amps with a 2 channel for the fronts and multi for the center are surrounds. With this maybe I can still get pure 2 channel? I have been told this is the best way to get quality without the compromise of the multi.
I am thinking of Classe, Anthem, Sim, etc. and am asking the forum for advice. As to Classe, with the new Delta, the cost is very high and would the older series be good? Money is available but I do not have the budget of some contributorsto tis forum. I would like to buy used if posible.
I would sincerely appreciate your opinions and advice. I know it is personal preference, but educated ears can help me avoid mistakes or help narrow my search.
Thank you for any help.
