Update - I again visited the shop yesterday and listened to the E470 driving ATC
SCM19, source DP550, this was much much better than before with the SCM11. Hell
Freezes Over and DK Live at Paris sounded big and convincing, but with
Eva Cassidy Live at Blues Alley I felt her voice just a tiny bit thin.
Male vocals is some of the best I heard. Overall I really liked it
except I felt there was still something missing. E600 is still sealed
and vendor won't open unless I give assurance I will buy. Anyone heard
the E600 driving SCM19 8 ohms 85DB sealed box, I worry there may not be
enough power.
Accuphase Integrated Amp - E600 or E470
I am building a second system around Harbeth or ATC speaker and decided on
Accuphase for integrated amp. Between the Accuphase E600 (class A 30 watts) and E470 (class A/B 180 watts) integrated amps I am hoping someone here has compared. I heard the E470
driving ATC speakers and liked it but have no chance to audition an E600. If the E600
sonics is only mildly superior to the E470 I would rather get the latter
to avoid class A heat plus it is significantly less $$. I am in Jakarta
Indonesia where it is always hot and I prefer not have a heater
in the small 1BR apartment I live. But if the sonics gap is huge enough I
am prepared to step up. Music I listen is varied - pop, jazz, light
rock, R&B and occasionally classical orchestra.
