+1 for the Belles Aria. I preferred it over the Ayre AX-7E - warmer, more involving sound. I bought mine about a year ago - a nice upgrade from my Rega Elex-R. Unless you need balanced (and I personally don't), look no further. Includes great phono and headphone amp too.
Integrated Amp upgrade?
Hello all,
Looking to upgrade my Cambridge Azur 851a.
I will be pairing with Spendor A6Rs (no sub). Two sources include Gold Note PH-10 & Mytek Brooklyn DAC+
My budget is $2K (new or used) and my top three choices right now are:
-Electrocompaniet PI-2
-Ayre AX-7e
-LFD LE IV
My room is on the small side, and I usually listen with the volume on the high side of medium. All genres of music.
Thanks,
Rob
