Hello everyone, I'm “Grandi”.
I've thought a lot about how I should write this post, but I don't think I'll be able to express exactly what I want to, anyway, I've been emotionally attached to music since I was a little boy.
Another fact is that I spent a challenging childhood and adolescence in my South American country. After much effort and struggle, I settled in Luxembourg a few months ago.
I have always deprived myself of almost everything, intending to be able to move, study and have a better perspective on life, (and of course) including music. Now I think I can start to enjoy a bit of this “world”.
I've already bought some CDs/SACDs and wish to have a minimum of listening to them at home. I've been researching for months and the more I do it, the more I feel like I don't know anything.
I want your help to start my life in Hifi. I don't have great pretensions at the moment, but I'd like to enjoy a quality that makes me see the difference from something I've always had in my life (the lack of this quality). I want to listen to my classic Dire Straits CDs, for example (with new eyes, in fact, new ears) and have the option of listening to streaming (Tidal) in good quality.
TI'm thinking of the following characteristics:
*DAC: SMSLDO300EX. (MQA, DSD512, Bluethoot, ARC, AK4191+AK4499EX and the headphone preamp are the features that brought me to this device).
*Speakers: Dali Spektor II (I already have the speakers).
*AMP: Marantz PM-6007.
*CD/SACD Player: Sony BDP S-6200 (and I can even use it as an SACD/DSD converter).
Any suggestions or changes? I know that you probably see this kind of post all the time, but I know that community is the most important thing among us lovers of good-quality sound. Thanks!
