okie there are few dealers carry ae speakers and nad.but if u want the rm 1.6k for the nad 352,i think u need to stick to music room in 1U.that the only place where u can get this price.if u want a brand new nad 352 should be aroound 2.3k.as for the ae.try the disti in puchong ioi mall.perfect hifi sdn bhd.but they dont carry nad.another option is hiway laser in ss2.they carry both of the brand u looking for.as for the price,must see how u perform when bargaining tongue.gif

b dragon, u got the wrong segment to post tis. Btw, I have audition A400 b4. This amp is quite old. Sound is good considering it is Japanese brand. However, dont think it cld go near 8000A. 8000A IMHO, has a warmer vocal.

Wah... HTKaki... warm or cool vocal also can differential, very Sifu..Sifu liao. notworthy.gif

I'm going to HK on business next week and do u know any nice places can audition Hifi and HT in HK? the AE900 promotion price that u mentioned very attractive, but too bad, no bonus this yr.

WOW! That's unbelievable....  Just last month, the AE700 is going for RM6K cash & carry. I nearly bought it but after doing some research on some forum, decided not to go for Pana due to its reliability problem and especially the unexpected short lamp life.

Yes, I heard that Pana prj is shorted bulb live, but with extra bulb u can easily push up to 3000 - 3500 hrs. Merely for watching DVD movies, 3000 hrs can last me at least 10-15 yrs. biggrin.gif

My current cheapo BenQ prj 2 yrs now,only done 318 hrs yesterday. doh.gif

I did audioed Diamond 9.1 at Desa LY last month (the sale guy demoed together with the normal pionner av amp and RM2++ cheapo pionner DVDP), not my taste indeed. however, to be fair to this award spks, I think 9.1 need to pair with at least budget Hifi amp and dedicated CD player.

BTW, do the all the speakers come with warantty, I felt abit uneasy when this saleguy told me, they sell speaker with no offer warantty.

after my audiolab 8000a retired early this year, now I'm NAD 320Bee user, kind of smooth sound overall, bass not too good. I think 315Bee should be same type of sound.

Nad 320bee or 315bee lack of power & ohms, should go for 352, more control & overall sound.

Sure 352 is better sound that 320Bee, but top up cost is extra 40%. worthy?. hmm.gif
anyway, it's bookshelf entry speaker niah, u don't need big amp to drive lah.

Yup, the Cremona is more popular than the Cremona M. The pair that I sold is no. 097.

I also had a pair of Rogers LS3/5A 60th Anniversary edition. smile.gif

Hi HTKaki,

I also owned a pair of Spendor LS3/5A + Roger AB sub, paired with a pair of pull push VTL-Manley monoblok also very nice biggrin.gif . however, when come to nice sound, I still think good pre amp carry more weight. I using the old vintage CAT SL1 ultimate pre amp.
