theta casablanca 3 audiophile qlty stereo sound?

Yes, that may seem the may to go. Im just surmising that something that costs as much as that cb3 does...i want it close to the holy grail of doing everything right!!!..lol..wishful thinking?....i currently use a yamaha rxv 3800...it does have a 'pure direct' mode which slips past video circ into clean 2 channel...i am using a theta dreadnaught ii and dali hellicon 400 mkii spkers...and tho the sound is very good..i really feel at times i need to play it loud to really feel it..wondering if a better start point would be replacing the yammy..as my other gear is higher end..hence...cb3

will superior dacs suffice

thanx for the feedback stick70..i guess my dilemna is..i dont care that much about ht..though i do have all the ht gear..i really want great stereo music sound..but..want the ht to fall back on as i already have it all set up..hence i was thinking the cb3..does it offer fantastic sound in stereo and ht

hhmm..thanx for the feedback guys..yes..as i have an ht sysytem already set up in my room..and i do watch movies..like i say..i was hoping for something that offered best of both worlds. I dont know about the dread 2 tho Ckoffend...funny..had some of the guys over last night...they, and i!!..lol..were blown away by this wall of sound this amp pushes out..we could hear every insturment playing away....plus, we had a few beers..so..it got pretty loud!!so at this stage in the growing process in this crazy expensive hobby..i cant agree..i love this dread...but i appct your input...and..i have yet to hear a krell, so, i am no expert, tho i know what i like..like i say, i am using a yamaha rxv 3800..and wondered if changing to something else could get me even better sound..and...all this with keeping ht!!..a large task i know

LOL...good call Stick!!!..u read my mind actually..i think i may do just that....and down the road look for a pre with ht bypass
