What to upgrade to?
Zu Audio speakers like Druid mk6 are high efficient (101db) and does not require high power amp, they are reasonably priced with full refund/return guaranteed withing USA. Low power amp (tube or SS) and it can match your budged even if you will buy new turntable too. You forgot to say what you got now ? |
Chakster, Thanks for your reply. I have looked at Zu and my amp would work perfectly. Btw I purposely didn't list my table or speakers because they both are excellent. I just would like to hear other people's take on which made better sense to upgrade. Some say source is #1 others argue speakers make the biggest difference. Thanks for your recommendation. |
I guess it would depend on where I felt I have the most to gain based on what's available on the market. If you're in love with your speakers and never heard anything in your budget that makes a material improvement then I'd apply my funds to the table....and vice versa. But....there are lots of $12K-$15K speakers that I feel sound as good as speakers twice their price but there are very few $10K tables that sound better than the best $20K-$25K tables. If you're really pleased with your speakers I think you'll reap more rewards on the table (and cart!)....that's just my perspective. |
Yogiboy I have a Artisan Fidelity Lenco table with a SME arm and Intuitive Design Gammas speakers. Both perform at a high level for their price. Almost no one is familar with my speakers that's why I didn't want to mention the table and speakers. 3 Easy Payment thanks for your opinion. I could move up the Artisan Fidelity chain with a trade in. Always a option. Keep them coming. |
