Worth changing the amp???
Hi peeps,
In two days I'll be off to my local Richer Sound store to buy myself CO 650A to go with the CO 650BD I already bought.
The question being........ I'm currently using my Sony DA3500ES set to SA-CD/CD, analogue direct and the signal is being sent from the 650BD, through CA DacMagic onto the reciever and then to a pair of KEF IQ5SE.
What I'm getting at is.......will spending £350 on a 650A give better over all sound than my current setup???
Sorry not heard thew new 650 series - many people on here like the Cambridge sound, but I'm not one of them. Given you use Kef IQ5SE, something like the Nad 326 or Marantz would give you a more balanced sound.
I don't think a budget stereo amp is going to give you enough of an improvement over your Sony receiver. I'd hold off until you can afford to move up to the £500-£700 mark.
Hi atkins 4725
