Elac Debut Reference DBR62 + Marantz PM6006

[Jupije123]

Hello everyone, I have an opportunity to get aforementioned speakers and integrated amp for 500 Euros. They are both 4 years old, I auditioned them and everything seems very well kept and it sounds decent. Since the room was quite big and without much dampening, I am not sure that I can trust only my ears so I am asking here.

Does that seem like a good deal?

Is the amp good enough for these speakers?

I have a separate phono stage and a dac so I am not sure I would need the "whole" amp, so in case I give a bid for just the speakers, what do you think a good deal would be? 400, 350?

Hi @Jupije123! Welcome to ASR.

Yes.

Depends on your listening distance, what kind of content you'd like to play, and how loud you want to play it.

Technically, the PM6006 cannot push the DBR62 to its absolute limits, but that's far from required.

If the Amp gets loud enough for you without audible distortion, then that's all that you need.

A more powerful Amp will not increase sound quality.

Though if it doesn't get loud enough, then just know that the Elacs have a bit more to give.

Listening distance about 4m at most, 80-85 db at the listening position at the apsolute max. Listen to all sorts of stuff, from electronic music to loungey jazz kinda stuff. Thanks for the reply.
