hi all can anyone tell me what speakers match up nice to a musical
fidelity a3 amp and a3 cd.


It would help if you could give some info on:

How much are you willing to spend?

What kind of music do you like/listen to?

Size/shape/furnishing or room? - e.g. carpets? or bare wooden flooring?

what interconnect will give more bass with this setup.i would like
floorstanding speakers.


None, so far as I know.[1] The amount of bass you get will probably mainly
depend upon the choice of music, choice of loudspeakers, acoustics of the
room, and where you place the speakers and your listening position in the
room.

If you genuinely want to 'boost' the bass, then get a second-hand Quad 34
and use its bass control, or buy a subwoofer as well as your main speakers
and wind it up a bit. :-)

Slainte,

Jim

noticable roll away the treble...
