jeg753 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I am close to making a purchase of Heresy IV speakers and was looking for some amplifier advice (good quality and fairly priced). I am leaning towards NAD M10 since it incorporates streaming support. Look forward to hearing everyone’s thoughts... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet that NAD is nice and am very fond of NAD gear, but I really don't think you "need" to spend anywhere close to that amount to get quality sound and feature set. This Yamaha network stereo receiver gets very high praise for sound quality, feature set, and affordability. https://www.adorama.com/ymrn803bl.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMImLiP5tHk7gIVRcyzCh2-fA1aEAQYBCABEgJHE_D_BwE&gclid=EAIaIQobChMImLiP5tHk7gIVRcyzCh2-fA1aEAQYBCABEgJHE_D_BwE&utm_source=adl-gbase-p Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Carter Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 (edited) Hi, I have a beautiful pair of Heresy IVs which I'm powering with a Yamaha R-N602 (a network receiver). Though I don't have anything to compare it to, I love the way the coupling sounds. Edited February 14, 2021 by Joe Carter spelling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's to keep the price down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicerogue Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Cambridge Audio does not offer an all in one unit. Their streamer is another box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camoucano Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I would pair it with a Bryston 4b ST! You can find one used and still in great condition depending on the year ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works pretty well with my Klipsch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
