Amplifier Buying process:

Initially 2 years before i started with Yamaha RX-v667 + Yamaha 5900 floor standing speakers and surround sound speakers+ sony blue ray player.
First few months my satisfaction level was very high.
i bought many blue ray discs and enjoyed.

Then the satisfaction level declined while listening to music.
My mind needs more clarity & divine experiance which was missing with the
current setup.

Then i searched the forum and asked so many questions to the fellow forum
members. i gained some knowledge and started auditioning Hi-fi setups.

1.First upgrade:

Monitor audio GS 20 floor standing speaker.
Got a good deal from the dealer .
The performance of the speaker was far better than my previous speaker.
But still something was missing.

2. Amplifier search:

Auditioned Arcam FMJ 28 , MF M3i, Naim nait 5i , Mf m6i also some
tube amps from fellow forum members.
sorry.....
To be continued in my next post.

[anm]

so how is the music experience now? divine or not?

 

[isoton]

Hello anm,
No words to express my satisfaction.hyeah:

 

[isoton]

some photos.

 

[Santy]

Congrats Isoton! Nice upgrade.
It looks like you badly need a rack to keep all the new stuff.
BTW you could use some sites like imageshack, photobucket etc to post big size pics. Attached pics are usually very small.


ps: I like that rug.

 

[isoton]

Thanks santy,

The biggest challenge is how to organise all the equipments neat & clean.

One thing i forgot to mention the Laptop music is controlled from my android
smartphone. very easy & childs play.

Foobar controller application very efficient.

ps: Thanks to KiranPs for helping me in Software support.

Once again thank the forum for guidance.

Dear gurus,
Yesterday i changed the 400 rs audio interconnect with Strightwire Encore2
Level 3 - audio interconnect cable.
I could not feel a difference, :sad:
Does the cable also needs some time to show it's potency?

Regards,

 

[AMITNOIDA]

Congrats Isoton for your beautiful system. Now you need a good audio rack for neatly arranging the electronics.
The interconnect take some time for burning in and show their potency - say around 30-40 hours. Some manufacturers suggest more burning in time.
Now it's time to enjoy and try some tweaking like speaker placement, toe-in etc...
