Audio research 100.2 any good ?????
Agree with timlub, the ARC 100.2 is a heck of an amp, but getting perhaps a bit long in the tooth.  Back in the day, it was one of the best.  The Parasound is good.  Also, NAD matches quite well with Monitor Audio.  Good luck.  Regards...

Of course your Tannoys are going to sound better in a larger room with more power.  What's the point?  Most of this stuff is all relative.  My Tannoys are in a smaller room with less power and sound great.  I think all any of us were trying to do ...

@bombaywalla same can be said for you.  You jumped into this conversation not knowing anything about my setup as well.  You seem to want to banter with me more than help the OP!   
Looking for IC and speaker cable suggestion
@stringreen thanks for the advice.  I have Tannoy's and am using AQ speaker cables.  They're nice as they seem pretty darn nuetral and kind of get out of the way, but I was advised to look at Kimber, Wireworld or Audience.  I'm told those are more...

@infection ....why don't we call it a truce?  I simply started out giving you my advice/opinions regarding my experience with Tannoys based on my listening room and my tastes in an effort to try and help.  Before I knew it, it turned into a back a...

@stringreen totally agree about the Clear Day.  I have to admit, they've peaked my interest.  May give them a try.  You have them connected to your Vandys now?  Take care.  Regards.......

@infection .....I am relaxed Dude!  I've found my speakers/system.....not chasing my tail and all over the board like you appear to be.  Advice or opinions, doesn't seem to matter as you seem to listen to neither!  Good luck, cause you're going to...

@infection also, you mentioning the ARC amp and PMC speakers further suggests to me that you just want to try something different out.  That's why I asked you if you really liked the Tannoy's.  As my friend JohnnyR has told me more than once, "you...

@bombaywalla ...we'll just agree to disagree, how's that?  The Tannoys don't need lots of power, you just want lots of power. Difference!  Our experiences obviously differ.  It's based on listening preferences, room size, etc.  Go back and read th...

@infection what are your room dimensions?  It appears to me you've received some good advice from others here yet you're still spinning your wheels so to speak.  The Gamuts are unnecessary if you're trying to "steal from Peter to pay Paul" to affo...

@stringreen .....I seriously doubt hifiman5 based his opinion totally on JRs advice.  It appears he has done lots of leg work to get to where he is now.  Look at his system, synergy up the yin yang.   Regards........
