Have you had other systems or components in the current listening room that didn't sound lean? Mr. Tennis' observations can be true, but it depends on the listener's preferences. His preferences, based on many prior posts, are definitely in the "warm & comfy" camp. Your speakers look very nice, from what I see on Ayon's website, very beautiful. If they are like other speakers of similar construction I'm familiar with, they are going to tend to be "revealing" and might be better paired with with warmer sounding gear. At 92db. sensitivity, tube equipment seems a good avenue to investigate.
How make my Ayre system "warmer"?
Hello and happy christmas!
Please help to make How make my Ayre system "warmer".
My System:
Ayre K-5xe
Ayre V-5xe
Ayon Eagle (speaker with Accuton ceramic chassis)
Linn UniDisk 1.1
Cardas Golden Reference XLR
Shunyata Phoenix speaker cables
It´s a great system. It´s makes so many things very very good but it´s a little bid on the "lean" or "clean" side.
How can I change this to be "warmer" without loosing transparency and tonality and musical enjoyment? Other cables? Would be an K-1x as preamp a real step forward? Or an C-7xe as red book player. I love the Linn because he´s DVD playing is great (picture and sound).
Thanks!
Tom
