- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Few.
My Systm has volumes over time. I went from a little amp a JVC Pioneer. In the pregnant Whaferdale of unknown origin and then to acoustic energy (% https://fr.audiofanzine.com/produits/avis/index 2Cidproduit 2C38992.html%)
I have several amps that Tranent home. None, far from it, that level. Now I have a modest exprience in HI-Fi in this price range.
- How do you report qualitprix?
Difficult to say. I think a really good.
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
Yeah. Unless I have the opportunity to hear another amp 460 euros which gives a better rsultat!
Small note: I take this opportunity to make new advertising for the store I bought it o. This is the same as for the speakers (see notice). A small shop with such a level of service, product quality and prices ok, Amrita live.
Moreover, it appears that a AFien, following my advice on the speakers, made of 200 prs terminals to go buy her pregnant and it is found content.

Few weeks.
- What is the particular feature you like most?
Excellent sound quality, both in acute low. Coupled a pair of EVO AE 1 enceites LINN feet on a turntable and Pro-ject Debut III, this amp is a misfortune.
Trs good finish, design (silver version) trs friendly.
- The least?
Tlcommande problems with the delivery, but hey, look in "bad luck".
Consumes up to 700W, the counter who does not like EDF
- How do you report qualitprix?
Simply excellent!

No worries, I advise those who want to start even taste the Hi-Fi without breaking the bank too.

I like the sound, the look, finish. I have in black, I hesitated between silver and black, with a slight preference for the money but at the time of purchase, only black was available, with two weeks of waiting for the money . As my previous amp was asking me the big problems (the sound did not work on one side ... more stereo!) And I was right in the mix, I took what was available.
Negative: I had a problem after a few months of operation. A burning smell and sound! At all. The LEDs still lit, so the current passed, but had blown a component.

Return Service, 6 weeks of waiting and return the unit. Since then I have no problems running, then everything is fine, but it's still boring course.
Value for money: I do not regret my purchase, even though about 450 euros, it is expensive in absolute terms. But I like, so I do not count. I used to be a Harman-Kardon was going on his 15 years, but Cambridge is definitely better. It is prowling and gained heat from the beginning.
Be careful to use proper pregnant. It is not enough to have a good amp, it is still necessary to provide the means to express themselves. My old JBL meet me half as elsewhere, they tend to pull the grave at the expense of acute, so I have a little frustrating to listen, while the sound of my speakers is enhanced Monitoring Event Electronics TR8.
I would do without this choice problem, or at least, I find it difficult to return to the material of lesser quality. I remove a still point in the final grade because of the problem component toast. Otherwise, what a pleasure!See less01 - vangogh11Published on 08/17/08 at 06:51 (This content has been automatically translated from French)It's funny: I happened the same adventure, one hour after the start of a copy that I had just bought.

I unplug everything at once and go to bed, determined to bring it for service. What do you imagine that it happened the next morning? I do a final test before packing up for the service and to be there, divine surprise, he starts to walk normally for hours. The sound is there, and the smell of scorched disappeared. I did not understand and still do not understand what could happen. Since I live in fear. Regards.See less01
- yoz44Published on 11/26/08 at 02:20 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I bought this amp yesterday and it happened to me a rare thing:
It sounds even better at home than in the store!
The speakers taient yet the same as mine (to monitor audio br2) and taient probably more willing than me (Hifi Rennes has 35 rooms Coutes very well arranged and very comfortable)
So I attribute this pleasant surprise my CD player NAD 521 BEE (rcemment also acquired.)
I had already a good sound before, but my amp (an old Techtronic) was slightly chih ...
With the Cambridge, I reach a level of precision sound serious, medium and treble even indict me. I love it.
The report price is good quality.01
