Hi

i have PC (Windows 10) using it for HTPC to watch movies , youtube , etc.
and also with Jriver to play music
i don't have a CD player , only audio files from the computer.

i have also Lumin A1 , i thought to try eliminate the need of computer to play music
but ending never use it (too complicate to setup and it's easier to choose audio files i have in folder in the computer)

Vitus SM-101 amps
RD-100 Pre / DAC
Focal Maestro
Cardas clear XLR and speakers cables


nothing wrong with the Maestro
i like their "full body" sound
great bass
but i never compare them to other speakers at their lever or higher level
listen at CES to Focal Grande for few minutes , didn't got the Wow affect i thought it will be.

what speakers should consider?

Thanks
