Hi All,
Quick question for the experts. I've recently picked up an Arcam AVR 100- an honest 75wpc - at a great price. I've replaced a cheap Technics HT receiver, and I'm looking now to upgrade my speakers.
I'm looking at B&W CM1s &( or maybe 7s if I jump in with both feet) Totems, Eras and really any others in the $1000 / pr range for the fronts. I have a small room, but if I can find some slim floostanders that I fall in love with ( ex: Totem Arros, the aforementioned cm7s), I'm willing to go over the 1K mark.
My question: the Arcam sounds great with my current setup - Polk RT series- but will it have enough juice to do these higher end speakers justice? Admittedly, it's a small room, so I'm not so concerned with sheer volume, but rather with dynamics and clarity.
Speaker recommendations are also welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Matro
