So now, when both kids have their own rooms, I no longer have separate rooms for stereo and movies. Had to bring all my hi-fi toys into one room and now there's obviously too much stuff in one place It's time to rearrange everything, get rid of some items and maybe buy better/newer instead.
My setup consists of:
- Marantz SR7008 AV receiver. Not pictured here as sits in different rack. It's the heart of my home cinema, very pleased with its perfomance for movies and certainly don't plan to change.
- Harman Kardon HK990 stereo amp. Built like a tank, weighs a ton, should have plenty of power, however I'm not very impressed with its perfomance. Maybe it needs different speakers? Has some issues as well as can go to amp protection mode any minute.
- Harman Kardon HD990 cdp. Used just occasionally as nearly everything is streamed now.
- NAD C365bee. Stereo amp with built-in DAC. Like it for the sparkling, bright sound and built-in DAC.
- Yamaha CD-N500. Cd player and streamer. Quite happy with functionality, of course would love to try something newer, with bigger display, however not sure if it would help to improve the sound.
- Marantz MCR603 mini hifi system. Old, but still good. Connecting to internet radio or server takes too long, but it'll be just fine in the kitchen
- Klipsch RF62II. Full set of home theater speakers.
I certainly want to keep SR7008 for movies, but need something better for stereo as well. So what should I keep / sell / replace?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated![emoji106]
