Hello,
I have a Pioneer Stereo Amplifier SA-7100 and a friend has a Yamaha A-5. Once my pioneer has two phono inputs, that friend would be keen to exchange his with mine.
Well, actually I only play through auxiliar, from a DAC, to my 2 Pioneer's speakers (CS88A).
My only concern is sound quality. In terms of audio fidelity, I think. Which of those two do you think would serve me better?
Here goes links on hifi engine for pioneer's one and audio database for yamaha's one about the two. It seems to be a huge difference in terms of THD and the yamaha wins by far. About it I do not know if there's something miswrited in hifiengine or audiodatabase or so.
