I had CA401 before and I like the 23.5 much better! More transparent and detailed. I believe the Classe is better with demanding speakers.
Mark Levinson 23.5 vs Classé Audio CAM-350
Hi guys.
Between these amps above, what would be the better choice?
I can buy a fully re-capped original (done in April 2014) Mark Levinson 23.5 in Europe, and i have the option to buy a pair of Classé Audio CAM-350 amplifiers from the U.S. which still need to be converted to 230v but it can be done here for a good price. But i wonder if there will be a loss in sound quality because of the conversion.
It's not a matter of power because both amps have enough for my room and speakers.
I like a fast, detailed sound with a big sound stage. When i read about Classé most of the time i read : too laid back. I had to agree on that with a Classé CAV-180 amp that i used to have in the past.
I know that the Classé Audio CAM-350 are known as the better Classé amps from the company.
Thanks in advance guys!
