[QUOTE="CAD, post: 916253, member: 3230"] Very interesting discussion Some great questions around placement/room acoustics and these very important factors often get overlooked :2c: I also found the Primare Pre Amps that I have owned or borrowed to be dead neutral as stated above.I ran the same Pre32 for a long time balanced to an older Krell KAV2250 driving Audio Physic Virgo 25's with very good results. Possibly you simply prefer the Rotel "house" sound or maybe the Primare is a little more revealing in terms of other links in the chain/room acoustics etc. How long have you had the Primare Pre in the mix? I doubt you have too much "wattage" for the room unless you listen at very loud levels :nfi: Those older ML 23.5 are still rated top notch amps. I ran massive Plinius amps including the monster SA250 and a ML333 in a 23sqm room and never felt that there was too much wattage. The speakers were Audio Pysic Virgo 25's and Sonus Faber Venere 2.5's. The room is however treated with corner chunk traps and some first reflection point panels etc. What I did find however when trying bigger speakers like the Vivid K1's the room was just too small ,even with room treatments the bass energised the room to a point where the midrange became muddy.Wonderful sounding at lower levels but way to much bass for the room size at higher volume levels. Subscribed and following with keen interest here. Good luck with your venture Nico [/QUOTE]
