You are right and that is only applicable to Joker's Range upgrading to Step Range. The upgrading cost is pretty reasonable and quite drastic in improvements.

If I am not mistaken u can always upgrade ur existing audio agile by replacing some hardwares in it. Hence, u save costs.

My current upgrade are perfectly fine for my kind of music... My collection are majority Jazz and partically in preference is vocal. Therefore, the new setup does produce the kind of expectation that I am wishing. However, it is to early to tell the final outcome as the setup is not fully run-in. Currently the sound performance is warm in vocal and wide in background.

Thanks for you input..

rclxms.gif  Nice budget

You seem to have a thing for German(Audio agile) and Italian(Sonus Faber) hifi  laugh.gif

Unfortunately the audio agile I am not familiar with as it's not regularly reviewed in British or US mags but the Sonus are quite highly regarded world over especially its flagship Stradivari and the Cremona. The Concertino Domus is also a pretty good bookshelf but on audition with the Cremona Auditor, I prefer the latter but both (and generally SF speakers) are a tad too polite for my liking in belting out music & this trait has been quite commonly cited by audiophile reviews. However, that may be the Italian taste when it comes to music. The leatherette baffle certainly adds a touch of class to SF speakers.

It is definately a step up from the budget NAD and Evo 1 combo, how does the audioagile frontend synergize with the SF Domus so far? I assume you bought them from Perfect Hifi? The Cardas mains is a good one I must say  smile.gif

Care to share why you chose audio agile? You could have done better with other mainstream brands with that budget, but of course unless you find great matching between the components you listed  blush.gif

Cheers
