Brogger's Audio Journey
« on: Nov 11, 2009 at 12:28 PM »
How to Biamp/Biwire  a Dared MP5?

Just started off with this hobby, after seeing/hearing  the HiFi show last year which kept me desiring for that fat..warm…soothing..and very detail euphony. My baby steps to this audio journey is a pre-owned dared mp 5 and a pair or 8.1 wharfdales using a laptop as CD player.

Upgrades:

Rega Speaker Cables & Quality Speaker Plugs.

Now after days with this set-up leave me wanting a bit more, and begs the question;

 “what can be done to make the most out of this set up?”

1. Another MP5 and bi-amp??? – clueless on how to DIY, not even sure if its plausible with the mp5. The objective is for more detail.

2. Have a decent CD player – looking for an azur 640 or probably a rotel. But open for suggestion.

Being a fund conscious person I hope to solicit sensible advice from the audio gurus.


Wishlist:

Monitor Audio RX2 (White Gloss) <<not available, need special arrangement to purchase.
Or
Monitor Audio RS 1 (Black)

Photos to follow…

More efficient speakers

Better room acoustics / treatment.

Isolation cones.

More often, we tend to change gears blaming them for our dissatisfaction. Pero in truth, those rooms sa hifhi show are acoustically treated to produce better clarity.
