If anyone can just give me a quick opinion on which way to go .
I have a Conrad Johnson ART 27A amp and concerned that it may not be the proper amp for a higher end of speakers.
From the comments I have read on the forum, I am interested in the following pre-owned and in no particular order:
Wilson Audio MAXX series 3
Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage
Canton Reference 3K
The Wilsons are the most expensive (almost double the price) and the other two are fairly close in price.
I currently have a set of Aerial Acoustics 20T V1 in Danish rosewood, which sound great and are beautiful, but I think speakers may be my next step up.
I really need to audition them, but any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Fred
Your amp & speakers are fine. I would invest in an Altaira system instead.

Or, keep your amp, and get a pair of the new MoFi SourcePoint 10s and an Altaira system.




I heard the SourcePoint 10s for 4 hours on Saturday, and Andrew has hit another home run.
