Updates and a question:
I picked up a pair of RS4000 with the emit k tweeters the other day for my bedroom system. Paired up with my vintage onkyo 8500mkII they sound pretty sweet and quite good given the room limitations.
I also removed the subs from my main system. They simply aren't needed with the RSII's.
Question:
Does anyone have experience or thoughts on trading out my Emotiva XPA2 amp for a Parasound 2250v2?
Think this would be more of a sidegrade rather than an upgrade?
I find the emotiva to be a little hot and clinical on the top end (clarity and power is good). I was hoping the parasound might bring out a little more warmth with music. And, I am using parasound p5 preamp - thought it might make for a better marriage with a parasound amp.
Edit:
There is a Mcintosh 7270 somewhat local to me. I'd absolutely love to step up to that level. But it's out of my current price range. (Unless I managed to sell a bunch of extra gear that I have sitting around.....hmm)
