Start with one subwoofer and when doable add another. In my experience no other equipment change will make a more positive effect. Or... just enjoy the really nice setup you seemed to have diligently assembled already. Who would have guessed the dealer would suggest all new electronics? The interconnects suggestion is a good one and I would add power cords also. Whatever music you enjoy, expand it and search for the unknow. You will never look back.
Evaluation of my 2ch system
Greetings all,
As the title states, I am looking for honest, not denigrating, feedback on my system and if any feel improvements can be made within the msrp budget of said system.
I have a dedicated room that is 23x15x10.5, no big windows and those that it has are covered with thick curtains. I do have some acoustic treatments, acoustic panels and it is carpeted.
SOURCE : Eversolo T8/Z10 combo, Marantz SA8005, Thorens TD 160 with SME 3009.
PRE: McIntosh C8
POWER: Parasound A21+
SPEAKERS: Tannoy System 15DMT II, Tannoy XT8F, AND 1973 Vertical Cornwalls that have been updated with new xovers, woofers and tweeters.
INTERCONNECTS: all power cords and interconnects (XLR) are Emotiva and speaker cables are some older Nordost 2 or 4 wire flats.
I love the sound of dual concentrics, I had all forms of klipsch, and I enjoyed them all until I heard the Tannoys and realized I found horns fatiguing, or at least that’s what I think it’s the cause.
Anywho any input is appreciated. I will now break out the popcorn.
Cheers

I agree with @sls883 If possible you can get some nice DH Labs cables, even on USAM for a reasonable cost. They perform well and are a value, even at MSRP. I too cannot comment on any of your electronics, I never heard any of that stuff. I bet the Tannoy's are nice. Best of luck. |
...and the flip on @jimmyblues1959 , "Don't go for broke trying to fix that which was suggested as an issue." Amuse Your Muse First. ;) |
