    Looking for AVR for Focal Aria 936 and Tidal Streaming - Budget ~4000€

    Thanks for your reply. So if I understand correctly, you're saying that either I use a much more high-performance power amplifier (e.g., Krell) or I won't notice any differences, even if I change the AVR. I was actually looking at the Marantz Cinema 30, which seems to have more current/power...

    Thank you again for all these reflections. Ultimately, I'm starting to be convinced that, as I said before, I don't need more power but perhaps an amplifier with a different tonal character to match the Focal sign. In any case, what wattage should I look for in a Class A/B power amplifier...

    Hi everyone, Now I have a Yamaha RX-a3060 and I’m looking for a new AVR that can meet the following criteria: Driving Focal Aria 936: These speakers are known to dip down to 2.8 ohms, so I need an amplifier with excellent current management and stability at low impedances. Integrated Tidal...
