This 100 watt Yamaha should be a nice fit with those speakers!

What is the best amplifier pairing for Monitor Audio Bronze 500 speakers?

Yes, the problem in that equation is not the speakers. I just went from a Marantz AVR/Monitor Audio Silver combination, to Luxman Integrated/MA Silver and the difference is night and day. I was in a hurry to do speakers prior but am not necessarily seeing the need now. Want, yes but certainly not a need. |
Yogi- Thanks for the recommendation! Not real familiar with Yamaha's recent batch of receivers, but I had one back in the 80's. Why do you think they would be a nice fit for my Monitor Audio speakers? I would be willing to give it a shot for $800 if it was a definite step up from my current AVR. Russ: Thanks for the recommendation! I noticed that the Musical Fidelity amp is a bit out of my price range, though I might be able to stretch if it would make a huge difference in the sound. mtbiker: Thanks for your input! I wondered if it was the AVR that was keeping these from reaching their potential. What is the model for the Luxman Integrated amp that you paired with your MA Silvers? I saw one for almost $9000, but that's way too rich for my blood. |
