So, after some more research and actually listening to the kit, I've ordered an amp
I really liked the look of the Audiolab 6000A as it has great reviews everywhere and also has HT Bypass, which is a huge plus!.
I managed to demo a 6000A and a PM6006 with Q3050i speakers, first thing to say is, they both sounded great! The 6000A had a bit more authority to the bass and also sounded a little better in the mids and highs, to my ears at least. The PM6006 did sound very, very good, but the 6000A was superb!
They also let me try the 6000A at home this morning, I tested it against the 3500H in stereo, direct and pure direct modes, the 3500H sounded good, but a little flat when compared to the Audiolab, the bass was instantly noticeable with the 6000A, not so much with the Denon!
I know someone suggested I upgrade the Q3050i, but they sounded beautiful with the 6000A and don't see any need to upgrade(yet), but the option is there with this amp.
I also thought that by the time I factored in the price of the PM6006 & switch at around £420, I was only about £160 off the 6000A! |
