Do my Dynaudio Evidence Temptations require more amp?

The McIntosh definitely sounds good. I just wondered aloud if maybe I would upgrade at some point. I’ll probably stay right where I am right now.

I’m not planning any changes. The JC1s are a different beast than the integrated though. 

I use a set of Anticables 3.1. I'm not sure they are the be all end all. 

Thanks George! I was confirming what I suspected you might say. The McIntosh 452 sounds pretty darn good but I’m always looking for possible upgrade steps. I used to own the JC1s and liked them but my speakers at the time didn’t require that kind of juice so I move on. I probably should have kept them as they are great amps for any speaker. As for the JC1+, maybe on the used market when the price comes down. Lol

I picked up a pair of JC 1s and a JC 2BP preamp. So far I would say it provides a touch more detail than the MC452. It's not night and day but i feel it digs a little more from the speakers.
