Hi guys,
Thanks for all your help when I was deciding for my brother's gift this christmas.
Surprisingly, my brother got me a Denon D2000 for Christmas while I got him a Yuin PK1 hahaha
Anyway, I have to ask you guys for help again since there are information I can't get just by lurking. I want to get an amp for my D2000, and this time, I do not want a portable amp and want a home amp.
I listen to all kind of music, but mostly, Hip Hop, RnB, Instrumental and Jazz. What I look for in an amp is one that brings out more detail from my D2000 and increases its soundstage.
Currently, I am deciding between EF1 ($299) and WooAudio 3+($495) since those 2 seem to get most positive review.
However this will be my first home amp, and I am just riddled with questions:
1. Is WooAudio's improvement over EF1 worth that extra $200?
2. What do I need to know before I purchase my first amp? (do I need a power cable, tube, RCA cable, etc or is it supplied?) because I saw in a lot of the reviews, people change the power cable.
I have more questions but for now, this is what confusing me the most. I am currently leaning toward EF1 because it will be my first tube amp and I figure I could learn by experimenting with the EF1. But so far family and friends think investing in the WA3+ is a better investment decision.
Anyway, sorry for the long post, but please post your input and insight, as it will help me make my decision.
Thank you in advance. Your help is greatly appreciated.
