I owned and used the 555 and 565's. They worked well but when I got a Classe 70 in my system that was a serious upgrade. It had more drive, handled the drivers with more control, went deeper, better high end and soundstage better. Who would,have thought that a 70 watt amp would sound better than a 200 with Maggie's. However, your mileage may very considering your speakers.
Adcom a weak link?
Interested in your opinions. My bedroom system in JSE .6 speakers, Atoll Pr5.1 and Adcom 7400. I'm using 2 channels of the Adcom.
I've read mixed reviews on Adcom. I want to get the most out of my system, of course.
Would you replace the Adcom with a 2 channel amp, preowned under say $700? Or my other interest is a Nuprime IDA8 integrated.
I like the Atoll, that's why I'm considering another amp. My ears are not sophisticated, so if you feel the improvement would be highly subjective, please say so.
Unfortunately, no local dealers near me to demo, etc.
Thanks
