Any recommendations on speakers that would work well with vinyl? I would mostly be listening to classic rock and some classical. also is it worth it getting a dedicated phono stage or is there an integrated amp that has a phono stage good enough for the $5K system?
Build a TT based set up for $5K
Hi everyone,
I've begun a fun and exhausting search for the "perfect" components to make my Hi Fi system. I've decided to go the turntable /2 channel stereo route.
* I would like to keep the total budget around $5K.
* The TT should be new/near mint.
* I have no problems getting "gently used" amp set up or speakers.
* I generally listen to classic rock, reggae, some classical.
TT candidates:
* VPI Traveller
* Rega P5 or 6?
* any other suggestions?
Amp: Should I go for an integrated amp and get a separate phono stage or are there any good all inclusive amps?
Speakers:
I was looking at some used speakers and came across Atlantic Technology AT1 speakers for around $1800. Any thoughts? Other recommendations are welcome!
I'm a newbie making my first foray into this really complicated and intimidating world (My head is still spinning after reading all the jargon filled reviews). I'm mostly looking to find component combos that have been proven and give me the best value. I would greatly appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks in advance,
Arjun
