I own an old JVC RX 5062 amplifier and recently purchased new Cabasse Antigua speakers and quality Subwoofer, it sounds great.
My dillema is - should I replace the JVC with a high end expensive amplifier?
I tested my 300 usd JVC against 6000 usd amplifiers and couldn't notice any difference with the same speakers setup, I compared at reasonable house power levels, I don't need more than that.
As an electronic Engineer I can tell the technical paraneters of the amplifiers and at reasonable power levels it is for my opinion not something that a human can hear and that explains why I didn't hear any difference, and I can tell that the quality of sound is critical for me, that is why I purchased better speakers, accoustic is much more compliated than electrical amplifiers and huge difference between low end and high end speakers. These are the critical parameters of an audio amplifier:
Power, Distortions, frequency response, signal to noise ratio, ability to match and drive the speakers impedance without affecting the other parameters.
Appriciate your view, do I need to replace my old JVC?
