I am not sure I would describe warm and full speakers as being accurate. Ayre is very good equipment but it is solid state and as such it may be a bit sterile/dry when compared with the best tube gear. The nice thing about tubes is that tube components tend to sound much better than S.S. at lower listening levels.
Confused and need help
After finding out that my 1.7 maggies were going faulty and losing their sparkle i went on the hunt for new gear.
I took my gear (2x parasound A21 and my ARC LS17se preamp ) and went shopping.
I had heard great comments about the 30.2 harbeths so i hooked up my gear and listened for a few hours, i was not impressed, something was missing, it was flat, and boring.
I connected up the new Ayre integrated amp and wow, the 30.2 sounded so full, warm, accurate.
Surely my electronics are not that poor quality?
