Hi all,
I've got a hifi (mk1 roksan caspian amp and cd player, AVI Biggatron speakers) which is 16yrs old and for past 7 yrs has been unused and boxed.
I set it up and used it recently and it did not sound as good as I remember. It was not very clear sounding at all.
I used my iPad streaming Quobuz through a dragonfly DAC, connected via a phono to RCA lead to the amp. In comparison when I used AKG 550 headphones connected to the dragonfly it sounds so much better.
So my question is do hifi components deteriorate from lack of use?
Thanks in advance
