Evaluation of my 2ch system

@mowntnbkr 

Trigger alert: this is a denigrating post. Not of your system, which is fine midfi, but of you.

Can't you tell if your own system sounds good? If you can't, no one can do it for you. What you're going to get is exactly what you're getting. Guys are going to recommend what's in their own systems. Some idiot is invariably going to tell you that you need some kind of Ethernet cable or box which is guaranteed to do absolutely nothing.

Do yourself a favor and go audition systems, as many as you can, until you start to discern trends and patterns. In other words, go educate yourself.

@devinplombier Everyone has to start somewhere. In my experience, it takes a very long time going from a noob to someone with a good understanding of audio. At least for me. 

Took me 20 years. If someone sat me down and taught me what I was hearing I’m sure I’d get it sooner. 

Things I still don’t understand -pRat. I hear it, I know it, but I don’t really get it.

Also... and this is a big one, 30-50% of good audio involves things we don't want to hear. 

@samureyex I agree, but the thing is, OP's system isn't exactly a beginner's system, right? He actually has some good components in there, it's not like Schiit and Topping type stuff. Normal noobs don't wake up in the morning and say hey I'm gonna buy me a Thorens table and SME tonearm today.

So, either he put his system together himself and he's far from a newbie and he has no business asking forum strangers how they think his system sounds, or he got it fully formed, maybe inherited it, in which case his question becomes a lot more legitimate. But if that's the case it probably would have helped if he said so.

@devinplombier You make a very good point but I think op is just asking what is the weaklink in his system.

I think he can do better than the Parasound A21+. 

@audiotroy Personally I would recommend upgrading your electronics 

I’m torn. Normally I’d simply agree that only the OP’s opinion matters, but changing the OP’s electronics seems like very high confidence for a major sonic uptick.
