i would recommend you take PSB Alpha into consideration. sub RM800, untouchable for the price.

i think that is Chord Carnival Silver Plus RM 40m not bad the price.
this cable can bring out alot of detail ..... smile.gif actually is silver coated not pure silver.

Currently listen see ur system is lack of wut things than tune from there if lack of detail than use this silver cable will bring some detail out if ur sound bright dont use this silver cable than go for copper smile.gif

If copper i will recommend VDH Clearline abt RM 25+ per m or take VDH Skyline Hybrid RM 45 per meter but VDH cable more to analog sound n warm sound if ur sound brights or harsh sound is suitable.

Copy From The Chord Company
Chord Carnival Silver Plus is a very affordable high performance speaker cable. Designed to achieve equal and realistic dynamics throughout the frequency range, Carnival Silver Plus features a pair of six identical, silver plated oxygen free copper conductors in a semi-air spaced configuration.

This is a well-balanced speaker cable with powerful, tuneful bass and an open, expressive mid range and treble. Carnival Silver Plus will bring out the best in any hi-fi or home cinema system.

I was in CMY (Sunway) the other day and got poisoned.

With a preference of Marantz CD Player, what integrated amp and speaker would be recommended to match a <RM3k budget?

And what do you guys think about this package:

Thanks.

7001 can prolly consider.

The choice of CD player is like pulling you back to the mini compos. Even a Zero with some OPA tweak will beat the hell out of the 5001.

As for the amp, it is nothing spectacular. and the speaker i have not come across.

If u choose properly, often not by the package as advertised, u can get more value. look at the hifi4sale thread, very good gear at second hand price to get by.

somewhat true, but a ZERO is a DAC, not a CDP. somewhat unfair comparison. and i agree that if you hunt and buy used your ringgit can be stretched further.

that being said, this thread mentioned that the Marantz CD5001 went for RM590 @ AV Fair in 2007. whats the price like now? I want to pick one up myself.
