 I have chance of  owning a pair of Neat Petite SX  speakers but is my Marantz PM6300  amp good enough ?

Not sure when funds would be available for an upgrade.

Cable is Mowgami

RE: marantz for neat/

Hi,

I just had home demo of these speakers in my system and preferred the Motive's. I think the speakers were highlighting shortcomings somewhere in the chain. Don't know your AMP but I would want to test out as the Petites are really very revealing speakers and could potentially show up the rest of your system.

However they are exceptional speakers, just not as well suited to my current setup as the Motive's.

I might test out a Nait XS next, otherwise leaving my setup as it.
