My Denon 3910's redbook CD playback is disappointingly bright on my Magnepan 3.6s. I had to buy a used Theta Digital DAC for the CDs to sound less bright and fatiguing. SACD play back is superb. Is 39 .......

Is 85 watts per channel too little juice for 3.6QR? I have played it at a level I listen to the music. It was 1/3 way to the full volume the amp is capable of. It sounded dynamic and very nice. ::: TO .......
