A friend of mine has the ML Purity(s) and I fell in love with their sound and the look. Thank God they were wrapped in Vinyl Veneer (I had to find ONE thing that I didn't like about them) because if it had been real wood I probably would have passed out.
I already have a nice little integrated that I like, the Peachtree Decco. I have it connected via toslink to my Apple TV and only play AIFF or Apple Lossless files. I was going to use the pre-out on my Decco to connect to the Purity and get a speaker upgrade and an amp upgrade all in one. However in this economy money for luxury items isn't what it used to be and the Source is about a grand cheaper. My question is are they identical speakers, minus the amp of course and would my 50 wpc Decco drive the Source? They seem to be pretty efficient.
any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
FYI, right now I am using Swan D2.1SE Monitors. A Stand Mount with a 1" soft dome tweeter and a 6.5" woofer with 3 inch voice coils.
