Hi all,
Back in March I decided to make the jump from the 'all in one' to a seperates system.
Speaker 'size' (wife) was an issue as was the price
I was looking for a good sound for both tv/movies , PS3 gaming and music
I tested several amps and speakers and in my opinion the Denon 1910,with the B & W M1 speakers , paired with an MJ Acoustics sub (pro 55 i think) sounded great all round
The Denon,speaker kit,sub and wiring took the price to around £1500 which was £500 above budget.
So I ended up with : Sony STR-DN 1000 amp and the Sony SA-VS150H speaker kit - which I got for £600 (and was quite chuffed with myself for saving £400 !!!! )
To be honest I dont feel that the sound is that good and perhaps made a mistake by buying a cheaper set up - unless I have got used to my equipment !!!
I just seem to remember the Denon,B&W,MJ sounding alot better
Then again,as this is the first amp I have had I could have got a setting wrong !!
I dont seem to find many 'raving' reviews about the kit I have !!!
I have done some more saving and I am contemplating buying the speakers mentioned above ..... or would you reccomend scrapping what I have got and starting again
Or has something better / newer model been released ? !!
Thanks All
