First of all, I would like to thank you all members who reply to a number of my previous posting.
See attached picture of my new speaker. Now, I have two separate system both standing speakers are by Martin Logan - one for purely stereo hifi to listen to my Vinyl, SACD and CD collection and the other one is for my home theater. Am in the process of upgrading my system, I don't want to be complicated but keep it simple and within reasonable budget. Currently, am using my old system -- Preamp by Sony, ESD1000 and Power Amp by Rotel.
My next purchases will be an integrated Amp by McIntosh, either MA7900 or MA8000 - waiting for the item to come and tested. Afterward, I am aiming to purchase Audio Research VS115 Power Amp if/when I an in the mood to listen to Tube sound. Lastly, my last purchase probably McIntosh turntable MT5. The entire process may only complete around 9-12 months, surely depending on my bonuses and complaint from my wife.
The sole reason why I bought those brands (Martin Logan, McIntosh and Audio Research) because they have established distribution system in my country, Indonesia with a good track record. Thus after sales service is excellent. I did looked and tried other brand such as Krell or Classe but they being sold by independent hifi store thus after sales services is in question.
Most of my cable are from Chord.
I decided to purchase Ethos model mainly to the size of my listening room -- my seating arrangement is about 3 meters from the speakers. I did tried with Montis, but it's just to big of a sound.
Welcome any feedback or comment
Cheers
