Yamaha vs Rotel

I upgraded to the McCormack DNA -750 monos. Much better!!,

I keep thinking about separates and monos. Then I feel like I open a whole lot of new can of worms with the disputable interconnect cables. I have a tendency to obsess over minute details and those interconnects won’t help with that.

I agree the Yammy would be a bit warmer and likely mate better with your DALI speakers.

Thank you guys a lot! Where do you guys think Cambridge amps fall interms of musicality, sonic performance and build quality in comparison to Yammy and Rotel? Of course, in the similar price range of max $4000-$5000 for new gear.

"... Where do you guys think Cambridge amps fall..."

I've owned a 40WPC and an 80wpc Cambridge Integrated. They were just OK, nothing special. 

Yamaha will have best build (and probably parts) quality by far and will have a warmer, fuller and more robust sound.  I’d put the Cambridge and Rotel more in the “white wine” sonic category, and both have had their share of reliability problems with Cambridge probably being the worst just going by the number of people here who’ve had problems with their gear.  Personally I’d take Rotel over Cambridge generally speaking for both build quality and sonics FWIW.  Hope that helps.
