Hello everyone. First of all, hello to all the old members. I have not been around for awhile. Sorry, my headphone setup is complete and satisfies me completely. I have been so busy with photography that I have not had much time to deal with the audio. I am having a bit of an issue with my speaker amp setup though.
First off, let me say that I completely love my setup. I think it is in my signature, but I am using a CJ Premier 16LS Series II, Premier 140 and Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor Speakers. Frankly, the Premier 16 and 140 outclass the speakers, but nevertheless, the setup sounds absolutely amazing. The only problem is that the 140 is massive. My apartment is not. And lately I just haven't been listening to it enough lately to really justify owning it. Or at least justify owning it to myself. It is already paid for, so the finance aspect of it is not a problem. Basically, I was wondering if people knew of an amp that has similar character, but significantly less bulk and weight. I love the Premier 16 and it is not too big, so I figure I will keep it. But I was hoping there was something out there that was not massive, but performered really well. Ideally, I would like it to cost less than what the Premier 140 will fetch on the used market (probably 4000-5000). Anyway, if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would love to hear them. I live in NYC, so I can probably find places to listen to them.
Here she is...a svelte 85 lbs, but she is only 9 inches tall...
