72/140-180 vs 112/150 (dealer vs. forum?)
Posted by: bec143 on 28 May 2002
I was talking to my local Naim dealer today about some possible changes in the future. Right now I'm running fc/cd5/hi/92/90.3 and happy overall, but sometimes thinking I could get a little more, particularly with regards to bass authority and, dare I say, bigger soundstage (this does not translate into get-a-krell-loser by necessity!)
My overall plan was to move towards a 72 or 102 with a 140 or 180, but I was surprised when my dealer suggested changing to a 112/150. Now, this seems quite counter to what I have read here, but so far my dealer has had excellent advice, and an excellent ear. So, does this seem like a reasonable plan? Here in the states, it's not so easy to sell used entry level kit, so I was counting on the slow trade-in, move up the ladder strategy.
