Helle everyone,
I am in the market to replace my Yamaha RXV 675 (90w stereo).
I have a 3.1 system with two Focal Aria 906, Aria C900, and Focal Cub3 subwoofer.
I plan to add later 2 Focal Dôme Flax for 5.1, and later 5.1.2.
I have narrowed my choice to these :
- Marantz 6014 (110w stereo) 930€
- Marantz 7013 (125w stereo) 1250€
After reading the X3500h review i have a few questions :
- Will I hear a difference from my yamaha with any of these two receivers ?
- Are the preamp sections of both of these the same quality and are they good quality ?
I plan to add later a power amp like an Emotiva to drive the front speakers.
- Will they perform as poorly as the denon x3500h, on the dac side ? How do this translate on the sound quality ?
Thank you very much !
