I recently picked up a Marantz PM6004 and paired it with Boston Acoustics A25's. Picked up the Marantz UD5005 as the music source. My intent was to pick up a system purely for music (rock, jazz, Dave Matthews, Jack Johnson, Miles...) with a budget +1 system.
While I was not able to test the entire setup together, I did hear some of the components independently (paired with other components) and supplemented that with reviews etc. Now having installed the system at home, I am not completely happy with the setup and would like to try and figure out the weak link in this setup. I am typically looking for a lot of sound energy the moment the guitar strums at the start of any Rock or Jazz track and I find that missing in this set. Is it the speakers? Is it the Amp? or the source?
Any thoughts on the same would be appreciated.
Some additional info-
-the speakers are placed on a fairly solid wooden shelf, the only issue may be that there is not much space behind the speakers and the wall
-cables seem to be good quality DAC cables from HiFiMart
