The Sunfire might not be the best dog in the fight, but it shouldn't cause fatigue. If anything, it may be a bit warm. If memory serves, the amp has two speaker outputs: Current and Voltage?? You may want to switch outputs as a first step. If that doesn't help, the next logical step might be the B&K. Good luck.
What needs to go?
I am happy with the sound of my system for home theater use but not in two channel. I do not have the room to have two separate systems so I am looking for the best two/five channel combination. Time spent is 50% music and 50% HT. My room is 17' X 13' with the speakers and TV on the short wall. Here is my system:
Sunfire Signature Grand Amplifier
B&K Ref 30 Processor
Sonus Faber Grand Piano Homes,Solo with dipole rears.
Highly modified Pioneer Dv 444 DVD player
Velodyne Sub
MAS cables throughout
My main complaint in two channel is that the sounds is fatiguing.I have moved the GP Homes around and the sound has improved a little but still do not sound as good as my previous Audio Physic Virgo II"s with a Clayton amp. Very few room treatments (foam on wall behind speakers. Oriental rug is in front of the speakers on the floor. Room is open on two sides (behind seating area and right side of room). Sliding glass doors are on the left of the room. I have set up the speakers using the CARA method.
What component or components need to go? Should I add a seperate pre for two channel listening or upgrade the B&K?
Any and all help will be appreciated.
