Hello!
Just registered. This is indeed a nice forum :T.
But since it's getting pretty late here in the Netherlands and I'd actually like to go to bed, I'll cut right to the chase (sorry for that...)
I'm thinking about upgrading my HT system (there's something new ) due to the fact I can no longer deny the feeling 'something' is missing from my current soundstage (clarity, power?). Percentage music/HT is about 50/50.
Since the current speakers I use aren't that old, I'd like to start with upgrading my receiver. The models I'm interested in are the NAD T763/T773 and the Rotel RSX-1056.
I’ve already listened to the 1056 and the 773 paired with both my own speaker models (DM602 S3) as a couple of B&W 705’s. Off course both receivers sounded magnificent (1056 more clear, T773 better with midrange frequencies?), a considerable leap over my current setup. However they were both placed in a specially designed audio/listening room, something completely different from my current 12 by 12 ft room…
The thing I’d like to know is if there are any more out there who made the same kind of upgrade (e.a. from a Marantz SR5200 to a Rotel/NAD ) and have any comment / tips.
Or if there are any people out there who have also chosen between the NAD T763/773 and the RSX-1056.
Finally I’d like to hear some comment on coupling the RSX-1056 or one of NAD’s models with B&W 600 S3 serie speakers. Although I am considering buying the 700 series in the future, my current DM602’s will have to do for now.
Hope to hear from you!
Greetings from the Netherlands!
