Hi,

I listen to acoustic and vocal music. I love intimate close miked vocals
and a lot of detail in my music.
After listing to a few speakers, I have narrowed down to KEF iQ9 floor
standers.
Now I need to select a matching amplifier. Any suggestions?

I have read some good reviews for the new Rotel RA-05 in W-HiFi. Going by
the specs, a combination of RA-06 + RB-06 sound exiting, if I use them to
bi-amp the KEF iQ9. I have read that Rotel matches well with B&W, but I
haven't auditioned the B&W yet.

The choice of speakers is not cast in stone yet, so suggestions are
welcome on that front too.

Thanks, Sharad

I have the new Rotel RA-06 coupled with the Cambridge Azur 640C V2 CD
player and B&W DM601 S3 speakers and I am delighted with the sound. I do not
profess to be an audiophile but I like music.

Sorry change that to Rotel RA-05, typing without thinking again
