Hello all,

First let me say thanks to Stereophile for being such a great online resource.

After many years of high end car audio i have finally made the move into the home audio arena and all i can say is WOW. it sure is a lot more enjoyable to sit on your couch and enjoy a drink with your eyes closed enjoy the wonderful sound that a solid system can provide. I am fully addicted to this hobby!

my setup is as follows:

NAD C352 Integrated Amp
NAD C542 CD player
Bohlender-Graebener Z-92 Speakers
Monster M-Series Interconnects & Bi-wire cables

Due to a recent kitchen overhaul, I get to purchase new speakers. My old Energy 22.3

I'm considering these two amps for my system. They will be driving a pair of AAD 2001 monitors (86db/8ohm) & paired with a CJ PV14LS2 preamp. Any 1st hand experience with either of these amps? Thoughts & opinions greatly appreciated.

Hello there, this is my first post in the forums. Nice to make your acquaintance.

Greetings from Downunder! Looking at upgrading my amp to either the Rotel RA 05 or the Cambridge Audio Azure 640a. Both are 2 channel intergrated amps which will need to be friends with my exsisting NAD CD player (I think it's the Bee320 from about 4 years ago) and Monitor Audio BR3 floor standers (5 years old. Any input would be much appreciated
