Hi All,


I have a budget/vintage system and I’ve decided to sell my vintage Sansui amplifiers for something new. I’ve had my M5HP’s for a couple of years. I’m very happy with the clear, natural balanced sound. However, where they are coming up short is in the soundstage and imaging areas.

I believe that these shortcomings are due mostly to my (terrible) room.

As luck would have it I am moving soon and will have a much better listening room and I’m looking for advice on a new amp to pair with my speakers.

Current source is a Mac Mini into a Chinese DAC. The top end of my budget is about $3500 CAD. I have my eye on NAD and Naim but I’m unable to try before I buy as I live in a very remote location.

What are you using with your Axiom’s and do you have any recommendations?

Thanks.
