You didn't say what was your previous system but the gears that you have lined up with the ARC pre and the Bryston amp, paired with the 10T should impress even jaded audiophiles. Congratulations and glad you didn't skimp out on the power. Let us know when you get the whole system all set up.
Aerial 10T Mk2 - Suitable Amplifier?
Audiophile newbie here. I found a mint pair of Aerial Acoustic 10T (Mk2) speakers at an estate sale. They came with Kimber 8-strand (per polarity) cables (4 cables for bi-wiring) and a Rotel RB-971 (70 watts/channel) solid-state amp. Sound sources are connected via the preamp stage of a Denon DRA297 (no speaker cables connected to the Denon). I’m delighted with the speakers, which eclipse the Vandersteen Model 1 pair that are now my TV speakers. Audiophile friends have made amp suggestions including bi-amping. I’m hoping for suggestions from Audiogon members regarding amp (or preamp and amp) selections that would bring out the best in the Aerials.
