Starting Over
I just heard my friends new small system: Speakers:------------------------Meadowlark Kestrals Hot Rod Integrated Amp--------------------------Electrocompanie EC-3 DVD/CD:-------------------------------------------Arcam DV-8 Sounded quite nice. He too moved to a smaller room from a much bigger room and system. Haven't heard it but I suspect that the Pathos Integrated might sound nice if you wanted to add tubes. Good luck. |
There are a variety of 2A3 and 300B integrated amps that can be had for around $1000, a set of Lowther medallions for around $2500 with nice drivers and a Toshiba sd9200 (DVD-A, CD, HDCD)for less than $800. Add a sub and you have a nice system for close to your budget. This will be magical on female vocals and small jazz combos. Saxophones will be right there in the room with you. They also do not have to be out in the room to sound good. Do a search here on 2A3 and then 300B to see some of these amps. |
