I am curious as to what people mean by warmer sounding or more 'laid back'. I currently use an Outlaw 1050 to power some Diva 6.1s. This combo always sounded great to me, crisp and clear.
I recently had the oppportunity to test a Denon 4802 to hear what more power would sound like through my speakers. The Denon sounded more muffled to me. I know that the Denon is a good receiver, I'm just wondering if the more muffled sound I was hearing equates to 'warmer' or 'laid back' while the crisp, sharp sound of my Outlaw equates to 'forward'.
I like how my Outlaw sounds more than the Denon. I am looking into upgrading to separates. I don't know if the dealers around me would allow me to test all the pre/pro and amplifiers I have read about on this forum so I would like some suggestions on which ones to concentrate on.
Thanks in advance,
