Does the perfect Amp exist for me?
Searching for an amp to power my 2.1 channel mixed media set up in an open concept great room.
My equipment:
- Monitor audio bronze 6 towers (2.5 way / 90db sensitivity)
- RSL speedwoofer 10s Mk ii subwoofer
- U-turn orbit gen 1 with built in phono pre amp
- 2023 Sony Bravia TV
My requirements:
- HDMI Arc/eArc input
- Subwoofer out with high pass filter
- Less than 16” deep
- Analog input with phono stage
- Less than $2k USD
- Nice to have - room correction software
- Nice to have - input for Sonos port streamer
My research has indicated there’s a few options:
- Yamaha R-N1000A
- Marantz Stereo 70s
- Marantz Cinema 70s
For context - I’m currently using a Sonos Amp and it’s really good functionally, but I think I’m missing out on better overall sound quality - especially with vinyl.
