a lot of folk tout the nad/psb synergy; i've heard psb auditioned with nad and been unmoved--it's ok but kinda static. on the other hand, i auditioned the imagine bookshelves with a naim integrated and thought it sounded great--full of life. like mlauner says, the imagines are reasonably efficient, so the 50w naim should do fine. add in great resale value and i just don't think you can go wrong with it.
Lost Help Amp for PSB imagine T
Hello all.
I'm newbie and totally lost at the very begining.... so please shed the lights.
I was about to build my first low-fi entry level system with NAD C326Bee + PSB image T65.
However last week, I accidently found a good deal in my local area which could not be ignored so bought a pair of excellent condition PSB Imagine T tower speakers. I really like it.
The problem is... I don't own any amp/receiver yet and I have no idea what to choose.
I have a cheapo Yamaha S1800 unversal player as a main cd-player and considering it to use as a transporter with a decent DAC some time in the future.
Followings are my initial lists of integrated amps for PSB Imagine T tower.
NAD C326Bee or up
Creek 5350SE
Naim Nait 5i
Jolida 302B or 1501RC
Cayin integrated
Simaudio Moon i-1
Unfortunately, there are no audio shops near my town so I need your help.
My budget is under $1K and lower the better since I have to spend more into cables, etc,...
What is the best bang for the buck amp for PSB Imagine T?
