Hi all...I started the year with a audiolab 8200Cdq and a 8200a running a valve power amp and a pair of Proac super tabs. In the summer I decided I wanted more bass and I purchased a pair of immaculate Spendor A5s. I wasn't totally happy with the sound and discovers the valve power was taking out some detail so that was sold...still not getting on with the spendor I bought a pair of 8200p along with a 8200q and also the same week a pair of mint Proac Response D15...I preferred the D15s over the Spendors by far do the Spendors went to a new home. I was wondering if the Proacs needed better application so bought a pair of Bel Canto mono blocks and yes I thought that would be my final purchase. I loved the detail, soundstage and controlled Bass but a curve ball was thrown in when i had the chance to buy a New Hegel H160 for a great price. To cut a long story short with only 1 hour playing and nowhere near run in it is a phenomenal improvement. The sound is detailed, spacious, punchy but with a really nice warmth without it being numb....I think my search is over......have you of you had any upgraditus or do you own a Hegel too....its been a busy last few months in my house lol....cheers and Happy New year!
