Intro2 + 200 or Allea
Posted by: ncartwright on 13 March 2003
My current set up is a 202+PSC/150 with CD5 and Sondek as sources. My speakers are old and not in the same league as the rest of the system. I am therefore looking at the next upgrade.
With a tight budget due to a recent house move I need to decide on the best course of action. I would like to replace the speakers with the Allea's but this would require holding off for a year but I could afford the Intros now and perhaps add a 200 or Hicap at a later date.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!

if the room is forgiving then you can get bass and overall full sound from the Allae with the 150. If it isnt it'll sound thin and anaemic even with the speakers near the wall.
If that doesnt work out then Intro will give a more even frequency balance.
Try in the long run to get a 200 amp, regardless. There is so much dimensionality in the Reference Series that the 150 cannot give.
If the LP12 is too slow for the new naims we'll talk about it then
