Replacement

Hello good people.

I have a new set-up of GamuT Monoblock M250MKIII and Preamplifier GamuT D3. The system is just so much better when runed balanced.

And my Cd-player is a Musical Fidelity KW DAC&Drive, singelended only. The input for CD on preamp is only XLR, so they really just built it to run balanced for cd. I did a test
yesterday (singelended) between my player and the new Linn Akurat DS music streamer. Funny the KW stack outperform it.

The Musical Fidelity Kw is very good, but I would like a little more bite to it, listened alot to heavy metal.

So any suggestion?

I have my eyes on the new Audio Research CD5.

I like a "punchy sound" so that it keep me engaging.

Regards

Fredrik
