It's not about the A5's being cheap. The point is that it is a piece of cake to find much better stuff at the same price. You might have to go with used stuff, but if sound-quality is the target, then that will be the best solution. It took me 5 min. to find the following. A pair of Dali 450 (which are excelent, I have owned a pair), here listed at ~86USD http://www.dba.dk/asp/soegning/detail.asp?annonceid=57302491 Pair it with e.g. this NAD 317 here availble at ~170USD and it WILL most certainly beat the crap out of the A5's. http://www.dba.dk/asp/soegning/detail.asp?annonceid=57076692 This is orders of magnitutes better than the A5's, there is no discussing that. -- bhaagensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54559 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
