My system is
NAD C521BEE CD
YAMAHA AX396 AMP
TANNOY MX3-M
SUPRA RONDO CABLE
IXOS HA203 INTERCONNECT
I recently put this system together to replace a very old Pioneer system which I was happy with but had faulting CD player and Amp.
I have had this for a few months now and can barely listen to anything on it now. I listen to heavy rock/metal and to me the music should sound bright, alive, powerful with depth. This systems has a sound which is mushy, lacks fidelity, lacks depth. My only control over it is through the amps tone controls, the amp CD Direct button makes CDs sound as if they are playing through an AM radio. To make it sound it's best I have loudness on full, bass at +2 and treble at +3.
Can anybody suggest what the weak link is in this system and what would be a better replacement if they can understand what sound I have and what I would like.
