Hello Everyone

Thanks to all of you for your advise. Sorry if I haven't responded - I was away because of family matters. I will read all of your posts thoroughly. There is a lot to think about. Thanks again for all of your valuable advise and comments.

Step a) Replace Focal with a Yamaha NS-2000A or Mofi 888

Step b) Replace Rogue Magnum condom with Rotel Michi.

My system sounds pretty good but can be a little bright, forward sounding and sometimes lacks really good instrument separation. I have decent Morror cables and AudioQuest power cords. Just wondering which component would you be looking at to upgrade? 1) Denon 1700NE CD/SACD Player; 2) Rogue "Dark" Magnum lll Integrated Amp 3) Focal Aria 948 Speakers; 4) Two SVS SV2000 Pro Subs. I was thinking of better speakers. Maybe book shelves since I have the 2 subs. Thanks a lot.

Sometimes it's the music you listening to.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions. The tubes in the Rogue Cronus integrated amp are: two PSVANE 12AX7, three PSVANE 12AU7 and four PSVANE KT88-PT

Any feedback would be welcomed. I don't know much about the sonic characteristics of different tunes. 

Thanks again

Bill
