Before you start changing equipment do you have a friendly local dealer who can lend you some different cables to try in your system? Kimber is good but may not be what your system wants. Try a different ic first on the cd...you're looking for that elusive synergy. I've used van den huls 1st and 2nd carbon ic's on rotel cd players before, with success. The carbons offer some warmth with a slightly relaxed attack. They could be purchased second hand. I've also used the carbons on a rotel amp...just a thought..good luck.
Why my system has detail but no body & warm vocal?
My system:
B&W 602S3
Rotel RA-972 int amp
Rotel RCD-975
Kimber 4Tc speaker cord
Kimber hero interconnect
When I listen to Barbra Streisand or Lionel Richie's song, it has detail but no body. The vocal is thin and laid back.
What is my weak point? I am thinking about try Audio analogue Puccini or Arcam A75 amp, and try Arcam CD72 CD player. Is it a right direction to go?
