$4000 BUGDET - YOU ONLY HAVE 2 CHOICES - YOUR FEEDBACK MUCH APPRECIATED
Family room 4.2 system click to view, (la Scala’s, 2 subs, 2 back ceiling speakers)
Profile 1: Music listening 2.2 & Profile 2: Movies 4.2
Option 1: Anthem AVM70 (i have amps to power the speakers) ($4000)
Or
Option 2: Yamaha RX-A6A coupled with Denafrips Pontus 2 ($4000 combined)
Which would you go for? Option 1 has superior room correction including the ability to setup 2 independent LFE channels. Option 2 has superior DAC.

Another option would be to get the MRX 540 AVR and the Pontus and just don’t use the 540’s amps, and the total cost would be around $3500. The question would be how much of a compromise is the preamp section of the 540 versus the AVM 70 and if it would be good enough to realize the benefits of the Pontus. Just another thought. Best of luck. |
I have to toss out another thumbs up with @glennewdick comment. In my very humble opinion, any Klipsch Heritage line speaker deserves to be pushed with tube gear -- especially Cornwall's, La Scala's, and K-Horns. My Forte and Heresy's sound so much sweeter and natural with tubes vs solid state, it actually amazes me at times. Just my dime's worth (inflation rate on opinions). |
