your b&k's suffer from 'familiarity'...they're really good....you're speakers are classics too. you probably just just have a bug to spend.....really listen to your system like you used to, the bug will go away.
McCormack DNA .5 and 1- big difference?
I've got some B&K amps (ST-202 & Sonata EX-442) but a chance to pick up a McCormack DNA at a good price has arisen. Trying to pony up some spending money in case it's a wise choice.
I've lusted after the DNA 1, this model is the .5 however.
Looks like a slightly simplified board design internally, and power doesn't seem to be that reduced- advertised 100wpc/8 ohms for the .5 vs. 150wpc/8 ohms for the 1.
Looks like neither are a dual mono design- which I like in my EX-442.
Would the .5 also run cooler?
Need to power a variety of speakers- Dahlquist DQ-10s, aDs L1230s, AR 9LSIs, Vandersteen 2Cs and Thiel CS 2s.
