Opinions on PMC vs. Neat, Monitor Audio
Hi all,
I have another thread regarding DAC recommendations and some suggested that my speakers may be the weak link in my system.
I am currently alternating between both Neat Motive 3 and Monitor Audio GX50 with a Creek 5350SE int. amp.
I was wondering if anyone has experience with these, vs. PMC DB1i.
The speakers are for a near-field setup in a small-medium room.
Thanks

@itzhak1969 I mentioned some of that info in the post. I use a Creek Classic 5350SE int. amp, in a small-medium room, but the speakers are placed on isoAcoustics stands on a desk in a near-field setup. I currently use Neat Motive 3, and also tried Monitor Audio GX50 (both are up for sale in the classifieds) |
I was going to suggest an amplifier upgrade until I noticed your setup is not exactly conventional with the speakers placed on a desk. Any full-sounding monitors wound be more appropriate than lean and analytical sounding designs for near-field setup. Apart from the PMC, other alternatives include Dali Mentor Menuet, Harbeth P3ESR to name a few. The DAC will be quite important too. You can look at the Chord DACs - 2Qute or Hugo. |
These would fit the bill. You should find a used pair for about half of the $1595 new price! http://www.spendoraudio.com/HTML/S35R2_main.html |
