Hi every body my first post,
so be gentle with the replies. My first AVR was a pioneer Av2021, I did not realise how good it was until I moved to a Sony Stn 1080, simply because of the six of the pioneer,. I then moved to a to another AVR, i cant recall the name of it but it blew a power supply lucky enough Richer sound fixed it but that had no oomph. A year ago i bought a Marantz Sr 7013 expecting a lot but this still has no oomph and to get any bangs and noised out of it , the volume has to be wound up to 85 percent of its total . only after 6 month it blew the HDMI card and I had again luckly it was under warrenty and its fixed.
Two questions.
1I am thinking of get teh Arcam 10 what is that like and I get a big noise for the big bucks.
2 I am thinking of selling my marantaz on Ebay. what would you thinks it worth.
I am using a linn set up for all my speakers and these are what I have been using all along. I use as my definitive test audio, the second disc in the band of bother series , where they jump out of the plane.
Any ideas should my Marantz have a lot of ommph or or not and Is the arcam 10 worth the upgrade.
take care and thanks
