Thanks for the info guys.
The Audionets are out of scope for at least 6 months. But keen to move on from Sugden A21 soon. I find it glassy or fattened up in the mids and lacking real transparency. As well as slighty rounded off in the highs and lows.
SN2 would be fine but cant help but wonder what else is out there. Tried Croft, Exposure, Soneteer, Audion (Valve), Classe, Naim but none of them did much for me apart from the SN2 which was clean but has that Naim thing.
The Densen B130XS is going for a decent price and could be a good step into Densen without gambling on a big purchase. The 175XS has rave reviews.
Is the Densen 130 is open, musical and rhythmic?
I love music when it is spacious, atmospheric and when it sparkles / shimmers. I want to hear those highs twinkle and flow.
The Sugden is doing my wig in. As much as sometimes it's nice. It just can't do the things I need it to!
My system:
Innuos Zenith (Not Roon setup yet)
Chord Hugo2
Sugden A21
ProAc SM100 (and Studio 118s)
Cheers
