| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room Reigniting a bit of an old thread. I think I am going to take @soix's advice and go with the Yamaha a-s1200. However, I have also noticed that NAD have the C 3050 coming out this month: https://nadelectronics.com/product/c-3050-stereophonic-amplif... | |
| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room Has anyone got experience with the Audiolab 8300a? https://www.audiolab.co.uk/8300a/ I think this also meets my requirements. | |
| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room All, thanks so much for your time and effort to reply. As ever, there are a few differing opinions but all are valuable and give plenty of food for thought. | |
| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room @soix thanks! So should I connect the center speaker to the Yamaha as well as per @kota1 suggestion above? So as per my original message "I was thinking of using the x3800h for my Center Speaker, Surrounds and 4 Height Speakers. I was then thinki... | |
| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room @kota1 I've got the Fyne Audio 500 home theatre pack. I love Fyne Audio. I've got the 501SP speakers in my dedicated music room. They're great. So for the home theatre I have: 2x F501 (L+R), 1x F500C (Center), 2x F500 (Surrounds), 1x F3-12 (Sub... | |
| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room @kota1 So something like this: https://www.rotel.com/en-gb/product/rmb-1506 If listening to stereo music meant for 2 channels and not movies, is it ok to have the center speaker connected too? | |
| Marantz pm8006 vs Denon PMA-1700NE for combined home theatre and music room Perhaps I could just use something like the Rotel RKB-D8100 https://www.rotel.com/en-gb/product/rkb-d8100 | |

| Rhodium plated audio grade wall socket Thanks @steakster . They also do the same socket in Brass De-oxited, Silver or Gold plated. Any thoughts? Or should I just get a normal plug socket. | |
| Rhodium plated audio grade wall socket @kota1 So those Pangea outlets use "gold-plated beryllium copper contacts". Will this make much of a difference? Is this better than Rhodium? 1) I am doing this 2) What does the sorcer do? It's expensive. Could I add this further down the line? ... | |

| If you had $12k / £10k to upgrade your analogue front-end... @verdantaudio Excellent. Added to the list. Thanks. The Sugden masterclass and Unison look good. | |
| If you had $12k / £10k to upgrade your analogue front-end... @grislybutter we're currently renovating our house so staying in a rental. We thought the landlord had insurance but informed us on Tuesday he does not. So we're 10k down unfortunately. At least the kids are safe. That's the main thing. @arcticde... | |
| If you had $12k / £10k to upgrade your analogue front-end... Sorry for my slow response @grislybutter . We had a burglary on Monday night whilst we were all asleep upstairs. They stole £10k worth of stuff so I guess there goes my analogue front end for a while. I'll need to save that back up. Really intere... | |
