I recently purchased a c2700 and mc462. It wasn’t my original plan, but I am thrilled with the combo so far. It’s not the old McIntosh sound for sure, Its detailed and yet still smooth and not harsh. Really really good.
I am a fan of both legacy speakers you mention also. There is a very good chance if I didn’t have my Salk SS 12s, I would have the focus SE.
I think it would be a great combo with the 2700.
The Aeris and wavelet will also be great.
I will say the DAC2 in the 2700 is fantastic.
I think you have to think about if you want processing and room correction via your 2 channel pre amp or not. The 2700 has more detail than many tube preamps I have heard, which is great yet does add some body and creates a big soundstage. I love it.
The wavelet is with room correction is likely to be a bit more precise. Though the Aeris speakers do sound big.
the c2700... well no debating it looks great!
