Hmmm, just be aware that most dealers that have the MX-160 will likely have it all hooked to only McIntosh amplifiers. I do know for a fact that the Mac amps are very laid back in the midrange (and overall). It will NOT sound like your Classe 5300 and you could actually be dissappointed because of the lack of excitement from the Mac amps. This may or may not be a result of the MX-160 processor, so if they can hook it to higher resolution amps, it will give you a better idea of what it will sound like in your system.
What AV amplifier for 4 x b&W + centre
Hello,
I have 4 x b&w 803 d3 + centre and currently all this is run by Arcam 850
Could you please suggest how to improve sound ?
Would it be a good idea to buy Classé 5300 and then look for another processor ? Can I use my old Arcam and add the Classé as an amplifier only ?
Maybe it is possible to add powerful stereo amp to fronts and adjust Arcam to only rear and centre ?
Any advice would be appreciated
