I have a dennon 4300 I use for movies and streaming tidal via heos app, hooked to 7 speaker polk LSIM 707s/2/3/6 surround bundle. Its in a small 700 sq ft apartment.
Soundstage and headroom could use some improvement so I was hoping for advice on a stereo amp mostly to improve the music quality to be hooked to preouts on the dennon
Mcintosh 302 came to mind but AV reciever was 700+2400 for speakers=3100 so i figured spending $4300 on the mac alone was silly.
So researching came up with NAD M22 version1 for $2k, parasound A21 for $2k , rotel RB 1582 for $1.6k emotiva XPA2-DR2 differential for $1.6k, or a pair of schiit vidar used as monoblocks for $1.4k
which would you choose ?
