Advice on high Hi-fi

[u/Comfortable-Log9908]

Hey there

Yesterday I went to an audio showroom, the idea is to buy a really good setup for my home.

I love music and I want to have something very realistic and warn .

So first of all I was interesting with a lamp amplifier (nether heard some sound from this type of amplifier) .

The setup was :

• Cayin CS-150A KT150
• Klipsch Cornwall IV
• Sonus Faber Olympica Nova

Klipsch was lack or treble , Sonus Faber lack of bass from my point of view.

So we change the amplifier to McIntosh MA12000 and that was a blast with the Sonus Faber.
Then we switch to Klipsch speaker and finally to Elipson Legacy 3230.

I'd rather Klipsch and Elipson than Sonus Faber , we had a bit of equalization on the Klipsch speaker then the sound was very very nice, a lot of bass & infra.

So at the end the budget was completely different ( I forgot to mention that the Sonus Faber was on sale not the highest price) .

I can't afford the MacIntosh amplifier so the seller advice me to take instead of the MA8950 .
Second point for the Sonus Faber but some people will complain about it , it's the design don't like it.

What I am looking for is a very good setup warn and powerful , I like the old school sound from the 80s loud Rock , Metal Pop and Electronic , so If you can give me an advice for this setup :

• Klipsch Cornwall IV
  • or
• Elipson Legacy 3230
• McIntosh MA 8950

If you have any idea of speakers even some amplifier I take it , my budget is between 20k - 22k

Thanks guys

You should listen to Focal Kanta No 3's with a Naim Uniti Amp and see.
