Nice, glad you enjoy them, they are pretty sweet speakers
Ive been listening to primarily headphones lately, with the 530s sitting on my desk staring me in the face. Just now took the headphones off, now playing through the 530s and i just leaned back in my chair and thought “my god these things are lovely”
EDIT: Cant imagine what its going to be like when i finally get around to doing room correction through the minidsp, as well as a little room treatment in the future.
I’m listening to mine right now. They sound sooo good. They definitely take off for me at about 85dB.
Just picked these up from the sale for a small to medium living room space and was looking for some advice for a dac/amp pairing around the $200 range. I did see a lot of recommendations for the denon pma-800ne, but that pushes me out of the budget area quite a bit sadly.
I don’t think I would require a dac right away (can always get one later down the road) so I was thinking of going for the something like the SMSL sa300 but with the speakers at 86dB, 6 ohms I worry that it would be too weak. Could also consider a Yamaha R-S200 model for more power but not sure how they sound.
Also plan to pick up a streamer/raspberry pi later on if that impacts anything
—Great resource after I had already typed my reply
An amp for JBL 530
$239 for a pair on the JBL website with free shipping. The whole line is on a very good discount, new stuff is around the corner
No three hundred dollar speaker is end game lol Ave if speaker means little not like iems who are constantly changing.
I wish these were easy to get in Canada.
I had the 9110 and can strongly recommend it. But $300 looks a bit expensive; they sell for less than 200€ here
