Hi everyone.
I'm a newcomer in the world of Hi-Fi, and I'm in serious need for help regarding the purchase of my very first amplifier, or maybe even a stereo receiver if that might turn out to be a better solution in any way? (let me know)
I have already choosen my floorstanding speakers - Dali Zensor 7 - which I have yet to buy. Now I simply need to pick an ideal amplifier for those speakers. The Recommended Amplifier Power [W] for the speakers: 40 - 150
Here's what I have been told so far:
I have had a few visits in my local Hi-Fi store, and the first time I was recommended to buy the NAD C326BEE, and I was told that those would go graet with the Zensor 7's. A few days later I went to another store owned by the same company as the previous store. When I asked which amplifier he would suggest me to buy he said the NAD C356BEE.
This got me thinking. I obviously asked him about the other amplifier that I was suggested, and he said, that I would have much more pleasure with the 356 rather than the 326, but I wasn't sure how to take that since the first guy in the first store didn't even mention the 356.
My question(s) for you guys:
What speaks for the, a little more expensive, NAD C356BEE rather than the C326BEE?
Is there a big hearable difference between those two amplifiers?
Thanks in advance!
