Re: Why did you prefer the Denon's sound?

67.172.251.66

First of all I just felt the overall sound quality was better. Specifically the Denon had a wider and deeper soundstage. I thought the Pioneer sounded lean. A lot of times the differences you hear between products may not be a matter of good versus bad but simply a personal preference.

As an example I had auditioned some Kimber Kable speaker cables to compare them to my current AudioQuest. There was an immediate and distinct difference between the two and I preferred my AQ. In this case I thought the Kimber sounded "fatter". I have just upgraded my speakers. I was at the same dealer buying a power cord and he suggested I try the Kimber again with the new speakers. The immediate difference is gone, the fatter sound is gone. It will take me a while to listen and decide if I should make a change.
