System Upgrade


Leben CS600; Harbeth Plus 5s; PS Audio with Bridge II linked via Blue Heaven USB; Chord Clearway interconnects and speaker cables (not bi-wired).

Sounds good but "flat" and I find myself having to turn up the volume almost halfway to get any "presence".

What am I missing, if anything?

Than you.

Thank you.

NOS.

Since I only recently acquired all the above, is there nothing else I can do? Preamp? Cables? Aurender or other?


Sorry to say but I doubt anything will work but more power amplification to get those Harbeths to sing!
Folks above are right. It’s probably a power amp issue due to inefficient Harbeths.  I think Leben pairs well with moderately efficient speakers (93dB and north).
