Help - Opinions - Amp for Sonas Faber Olympica III Speakers
The Parasound Halo JC5 tamed some of the brightness that I had with the Classe Sigma 2 amp. Definitely an all around improvement. More musical, better bass control but it did loose some bass punch. Then I switched XLR interconnects to Mogami's made by Jerry of 10 Audio. This was a big improvement. Detail, clarity and bass improved. I highly recommend them for $109 for 1 meter pair. To me the amp and the Mogami XLR's ended my search for improvement. My system sounds great to me. FYI I was using XLR's by Raven Audio. Jerry cables are listed here on Audiogon. My system: NAD C 658 Preamp with HDMI module. Parasound Halo JC5. Audioquest NRG-Z2 Ac power cords for pre and amp. Velodyne HGS 10 sub. LG 65 inch TV. Logitech 665 Remote. Arcam DVD/CD. Mogami XLR's By Jerry at 10 Audio. Audioquest Cinnamon 48 HDMI cables. Audioquest Greyhound Sub cable. Mogami speaker wire 2921. Speakers are Bi-wired. Sonus Faber Olympica III. |
