I recently was listening to the DENON 3805 (...having good test reports on surround sound) but disappointing :cry: me a lot in stereo.
I feel that either you pay for dozens of buttons, plugs and effects OR for pure sound quality in stereo. I am looking for something with only a few buttons but not for a very pure "extremist".
Of course in the ROTEL-Club there will be the fans of the Rotel-Brand but can you give me a recommendation for ROTEL or comparable components if the profile is 40% stereo-listening :roll: , 30% self-made stereo-video and 30% DVD or (in future) HDTV? My main speakers are the French TRIANGLE Altinis.
a) Is Rotel at least "half-way" between DENON 3805 and THETHYS Casablanca in terms of sound for Jazz, "natural" sound of reeds and voices? My favourite instrument is double bass. Any resonably priced alternatives?
b) Shall I take a surround-sound processor with one dedicated stereo amplifyer ( RSP 1068 and RB1070 or RB1080 + RMB 1066 for surround) or shall I decide for a multi-channel amp ( RSP 1068 + RMB 1075 OR all in one RSX 1056) ?
Thanks for your help!
