Hi!
I have a 5.1 setup I enjoy with a Yamaha RXV373 reciever.
For movies it's doing well, but it struggles to meet my needs with music.
I'm planning on upgrading to a Denon X3700/X4700 and I also want to incorporate an integrated stereo amp to enjoy both worlds.
Now, my fronts are Monitor Audio Silver RX2. I've read the best combinations are Musical Fidelity and Audiolab.
I'm not sure which model I should get, the Musical Fidelity M2Si (which I found a good 2nd hand deal for), or a new Audiolab 6000A.
Unfortunately I can't audition any of them.
Coming from a basic Yamaha AVR I'm expecting to hear a dramatic difference with such a change in setup.
I plan on mostly streaming music through WiFi using Tidal to the AVR. Can content streamed this way to the AVR be used for the integrated stereo amp? Or do I need the stereo amp itself to support WiFi streaming?
The end goal is to combine surround sound (although currently basic) with quality stereo through the HT Bypass feature both devices share. If using it this way, does the lack of connectivity the M2Si have has any impact on my usage?
