Hi All,
Looking for some advice.
I have the Denon for about 18 months and it has served me well in that time. Used it a lot and with a variety of sources (UHD, Sky Q, Streaming etc etc) and for the price I paid I really cant ask for more. Superb piece of kit and honestly I am always impressed at what it delivers at that price point! I am getting the nasty old upgrade bug knocking on my door and wanted to get some advice on some directions to look at.
I have a 7.1.4 setup up with the following speakers:
1 x Pair B&W 702 S2 – Front
1 x B&W HTM71 S2 - Centre Channel
2 x pairs of B&W CCM664 – Ceiling/Atmos
2 x Pairs of 707 S2 - Rear and Side
1 x SVS PC4000 - Sub
Really happy with the speakers and no plan to change them.
I want something that can handle the above and maybe get more/the best out of my speakers, something with more power and better for music listening (I got rid of Naim Super Uniti amp when I bought this and the Denon is good but just isnt anywhere near as good with music and I miss the Naim)
I have been looking the Lyngdorf MP-40 with a power amp of some sort. From what I can tell this would be a significant upgrade for me and is probably all the amp I would ever need. The only thing is the price, by the time I have bought both I am looking at around £11k which is a huge amount of money and a massive increase from the £3k I paid for the Denon, I can probably justify it/afford it but it will take some serious man maths!!
Anyone have any other suggestions? Is this the kind of money I need to spend to get an upgrade worth doing? Is there something that will cover the upgrade bug and give me the performace I am looking for for less money?
All thoughts greatfully received!!
