Great suggestion! Your right can always resale.
Getting back in the game
So I’ve been out of the hobby for about ten years……kids divorce business……you get it. However, my new wife and I just bought a house and I got a room all to myself. Was going to turn it into a theater room. Got a laser tv bought a brand new denon receiver plugged in my old B&W 804’s that I hadn’t heard in forever and hell I’m hooked again now
my question is this. I am currently using the denon and streaming over my tv using tidal. Lol I know this is not anywhere close to what I can get from these speakers so I would love a couple suggestions
im gonna need either a great integrated and a streamer or maybe separates? I will probably also get a TT as I love vinyl.
i love vocals and rock but if you pushed me.. I tend want a really emotional connection to the music rather than be mistified by the incredibly etched out accurate sound….. does that make sense?
room is 13 by 15 by 9. Getting room tx as we speak. All suggestions are appreciated on how make this room sing. Can spend around 8k
thank you

My bias is towards good two-channel, so I like those suggestions the best. 😀 If it were me, keeping the speakers, I am auditioning the Audio by Van Alstine DVA digital preamp and DVA M225 monoblocks. And if I defer spending on better cables (hint: Iconoclast), I might have enough budget to snag a secondhand Lumin U1 Mini (streamer), maybe with the better sBooster LPS if I am lucky or patient. |
To take it a step further consider a McIntosh C46/47 SS preamp you will have no synergy or tube issues. When you get the electronics right future upgrading is much easier. If you ever decide to upgrade your speakers to a current or newer B&W speaker your electronics can stay. Focus your rotation/upgrading on source/s, cables and room treatment to get the sound desired. Keep in mind digital is less expensive then analog when regarding price/performance ratio. |
