Because it has not the property to give depth. Vandersteen speakers can give depth. So you need an amp who can do this. Wenn you put an amp who can give a deep stage on a pre amp who can't give a deep stage. It is al gone. It is that simple!
Adding 2 channel goodness to existing reciever
I have Marantz SR7005 which has preamp out. I am planning to go with Vandersteen 2Ce Sig II or Treo along with Vandersteen VCC-5 . I preferably want to keep using existing Marantz so that I can use it for my 5.1 HT.
How do I do this?. Can I just bypass the 2 channel out of Marantz and just add new amp for both the channels?. Or I have to go with a new preamp with HT bypass and connect the CD/DAC to the preamp?.
I am planning to start with Rogue Audio/Prima Luna/Emotiva/Cary Audio/Pass Labs etc. Can I go with amp that can put out more than 160 watts per channel?. I was wondering if that can damage the speakers?.
I also want to try out Vinly in a year or two without have to change the amp.
Any advice is appreciated.
