Thanks for the answer Oliver, and thanks to Andrew as well.
Yes it is pretty much as I thought, sounds like I need to continue auditioning until I find an active pre-amp that fits in with my system and at least is as good or improves to overall sound as I hear it. It is all quite difficult really as a lot of the end result is affected by the room and its influence of everything. This is also slightly concerning as after a lot of investment into getting a system that I like the sound of I know that in about 5 years we will be down sizing and then I will have the issue of how it reproduces in the new abode.
Hi Adrian,
Don't be worrying about 5 years from now - right now is where you live!
If you get where you like the sound, a change of abode should only require a few tweaks perhaps, at worst a change of speakers.
I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in
T/T: Inspire Monarch, X200 tonearm, Ortofon Quintet Blue. Phono: Project Tube Box CD: Marantz CD6006 (UK Edition); Amp: Musical Fidelity A5 Integrated.
Speakers: Zu Omen Def, REL T9i subwoofer. Cables: Atlas Equator interconnects, Atlas Hyper 3.0 speaker cables
T'other system:
Echo Dot, Amptastic Mini One,Arcam A75 integrated, Celestion 5's, BK XLS-200 DF
A/V:
LG 55" OLED, Panasonic Blu Ray, Sony a/v amp, MA Radius speakers, REL Storm sub
Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.
