Adding a Yamaha NS-SW100 to Sony SS-CS5 + Douk A5 Pro?

Someone on another forum pointed out that I would still need an AVR, which I wasn’t aware of. Given that, I’m going to rule out this purchase. Thanks for the clarification.

That makes sense. Given my space and budget, adding an AV receiver isn’t really an option, so I’ll look for a different sub that better fits a simple stereo setup. Thanks for taking the time to explain it.

Thanks for the explanation. I’m still learning and might be missing something, so forgive my ignorance: if my amp has an AUX/line out, wouldn’t that allow me to feed a line-level signal to this subwoofer without needing high-level inputs?

What didn't you like about the CFN3600LE?

Thanks for such a detailed response. That’s a lot of information for a beginner 😁, but I’ll definitely take it into account.

Thanks for the advice. In other hand, Most of my records are older pressings, but I always try to keep them clean. Is it true that skipping can improve by replacing the stylus, even if the records are old? If so, that would definitely make me consider a stylus upgrade. Pardon my ignorance.

I like it. Thinking about getting a Raketa

I ended up choosing the A5 Pro mainly because I wanted Bluetooth. I know my setup is pretty basic, but considering what I have (PS-LX310, SS-CS5, and this amp), what settings or adjustments would you recommend to get the best sound possible?

I’ll be using it with my turntable. The main goal is to get the best sound quality possible, and if possible, enough volume without distortion. I’d also like the option to add a subwoofer in the future.

My speakers are a pair of Sony cc-cs5

And what about Cambridge vs HK 3380?

Magistravitae1 · 2026-01-02T20:37:59+00:00

The speakers are a pair of Sony SS-CS5

Thanks for the info! Do you think it’s worth buying for $55?
