granite plinth under viennas.What is the floor? wood or carpet?
Are you using spikes under the speaker or is the speaker cabinet sitting directly on the floor?
what amp under a grand?
I have vienna acoustic mozart grand marantz sr5005 avr,marantz 8001 sacd,vieanna theatro center,b&w 600s3 for rears,current amp adcom 555mk2.looked at used parasound hca 2003 thx, rotel rb 993, and and an adcom 5802.im fine with the performance the marantz gives me for ht but for two channel sound is muddy. i think its the amp? any advice on a used amp that would bring out the detail of the mozarts?

IMHO, I think side wall distance and back wall distance being the same at 30" is a problem. I know sometimes you may be limited with positioning, but look at this Speaker Placement Guide and notice the difference between side wall and rear wall distances. |
and if is not enough a year from now, i could always get another one and bridge them.Sorry Jughead, that's a bad idea. Minimum speaker load impedance for the a23 in bridged mode is 8 ohms and your speakers are 4 ohms. The a23 may work initially, but will likely fail due to running extremely hot. This would be the same as using a 2 ohm speaker load in the stereo mode. Why not ask the dealer if he will give you a 30 day option to return the a23 and pay the difference for the a21? |
