Agree about super efficient speakers (like the Altec’s or Klipsch). They’ll expose downstream electronics because of their efficiency and lack of distortion. I Have Fortes which will magnify my crappy streamer’s shortcomings (WiiM mini). I Like the Vincent. Probably look at different streamers/DACs. Or, if you want something speakerwise to mask some of the electronics, I also have a pair of Buchardt 400 Mk2 that are not very efficient, but not nearly as sensitive to electronics.
Thinking about selling my Vincent 737
Hello! I'm still sort of a noob when it comes to the audiophile stuff, so be gentle!
So, ive had my Vincent sv737 for a couple years now, and make no mistake, i love the thing-- albeit without a lot of a/b reference points. But i think i might be ready to try something new. I love the soundstage and 3d depth of tube sound, but also like tight bass and detail. My question is: if i sold this guy, what would be my best bet? I have a gustard x26pro dac, a zen ifi streamer, and some klipsch rf8000 f speakers.
Was thinking a tube pre amp and a separate solid state power amp or mono blocks?
*Having the dac and streamer is a part of why im considering the sell. Im not using the built-in ones in the 737. Maybe i can get more bang for my buck?
Thanks!
