Is my setup mid-fi or hi-fi?

Thanks guys, I agree what all of you have said, in response to the fellow that commented on the A21 possibly not being enough to drive the mani-2. keep in mind that the mani-2 is a 4 ohm speakers and the a21 puts out 400 watts per channel at 4 ohms. Vince stated that this amp will power and be able to handle the low ohm swings of the mani-2 just fine.

As far as the cdp goes, i gues I am going to have to find a helpful dealer who will let me take some equipment home to compare.

if your here your rig is hifi!

where does midfi end & hifi begin?

hifi sound can be had for very little cash & lowfi sound can be had with a ton of cash so if your happy with it its hifi for sure.

Since there seems to be no distinction between mid-fi and hi-fi on this forum I will just keep my stuff and go home :-). Ok for a CDP a Rega Planet might be in order. Or there was a $100.00 CDP reviewed over on audio asylum that was getting rave reviews.

Remember to take the system as a whole.

As Sean so eloquently stated,if you have money in the pocket....actually your deep enough with what you have,NOW you could try some organics or seating positions for a different kind of upgrade,YMMV...Bob

Slov_dream, I agree with your assessment of the A21 - I drove Dynaudio 52's with mine, and those are 85 db sensitive, with a nominal 4 Ohm impedance. You should be fine.
