The slight mid-bass boost of the Sprout will most likely require repositioning of your open baffle speakers (in order to give it a fair shake).
I’ve been intrigued by the pro reviews of the Sprout in that regardless of any stated shortcomings there is recurring mention of how fun and musical is sounds.
I have two sprouts . One for my headphones HE500. Another in my kitchen with Silverline minuets . Honestly the sprout it is a breakthrough product and a super achievement. I ended selling my Hegel H80 etc. Why . Because over a small area I can pack a TT, DAC, streaming via coaxial and Bluetooth from my portable tidal devices. Just awesome.
