Bare bone 2 channel audio, has anyone compared these units for basic cd listening? i have the a1, it's wonderful for ht, i think it borders on horrid for cd listening, i bought the a1 for ht only with though of adding a dedicated pre down the line, i don't have much space in the rack, if the denon were superior to the a1 for 2 channel music i would make the exchange, i have no denon dealers near me, i would also be using the denon more a pre only as i have a macintosh amp for the mains, my mac amp and the dsp-a1 just don't sound good for 2 channel music, i heard somewhere that the yammies are best suited for their internal amps, any truth to that?
second part of my questions is this, let's assume this whole 96/24 bit dvd mlp audio stuff becomes a huge hit, what kind of a modification to my ap1 would i have to make, would an external decoder be far worse sounding then a unit that had the capabilities to decode this stuff built into it internally, im sorry if im not making much sense, im not to informed when it comes to this stuff! thank you for taking the time to read, i would really appreciate any imput anyone could offer, especially pertaining to the first part of my post.
