RE: My Home Cinema Setup

TenQ...Glad you like it. To be honest, I`ve had a look at your pics. Brilliant looking Hi-Fi. I am certain that it sound well too. Just wondering what would it happen if I add one of those Marantz CD players (  6003 or 6004 ) via nice Chord analog cables to my AVR ??? Would it improve it at all ?

RE: My Home Cinema Setup

RE: My Home Cinema Setup

Oh,yes, they do  Smile  That`s the one I am using now :

http://www.hifigear.co.uk/proac-signature-black-speaker-cable.html

 

With regards to the sound  nd HomeCinema experience - I am not an expert or a musician, so I wouldn`t be able to describe it as well as some of you guys do. I`d say that the picture is great. The Surround Sound on some Blu-rays is stunning ( The latest Terminator, 2012 , Transformers etc. ) Some DVD`s are great too- just wouldn`t miss mentioning "The House of Flying Daggers " - absolutely brilliant sound .  But to be completely honest,some of them sound pretty average. Maybe a higher class AVR would do a better job !? My problem is that there is nothing to compare it with. That`s my very first surround sound system.

Anyway - listening to CD`s is what bothers me at the moment. I think that the Mezzo 6 should sound even better . In their price-range they are one of the best in the class - " extremely musical " they say..... What should I do about it ?

 I would be really thankful for your opinions ....
