Amplifier for B&W 705 S2
Looking for an amp to match my B&W 705 S2 using a Dennafrips Ares II DAC directly into the amp. Everything I listen to will be Total Premium streamed through a Node 2i..
I have tried a Parasound A23 and a Classe AMP2 Class D amp. I like the power, detail, precision, and speed of the AMP2 but it can be a bit bright and/or harsh on some cuts. It may have a bit too much precision but I'm not sure. The Parasound was OK but seemed to be a bit dull. I primarily listen to 70-80s rock (especially Pink Floyd and Supertramp) and listen quite loud in a small room.
I like to buy used equipment (or heavily discounted) and would like to keep the expenditure below $3000.
