OK, Thanks for the input so far guys but I should have completed the scene with the rest of my system. The Fisher was brought in to act as a full featured unit for a secondary pair of speakers which I know it will match up to beautifully: Silverline Sonata 2's (8 ohm with very little variation from it and 95db efficient). This will be fed from the dac of my main system when I'm not simply using the tuner on the Fisher. My main system would not permit the Fisher to power it... Speakers are Apogee Duetta Signatures (approx 83 db efficient and a pulverizing 3.2 ohms +/- a little...) Amps are usually my Conrad Johnson Premier 12's (140 per channel using 4 x 6550's per channel) which is fed into the Apogees after going through an external crossover which splits the signal at 50hz and below into a Rel Stadium 2 sub while the CJ's handle above that into the speakers...
While I'm pretty sure the turntable should sound very nice through the Fisher into the Silverlines,I was hoping to integrate it into the main system as well. So: TT to Lehman to Fisher (aux input?) then the Fisher as a linestage... but that must make it all the way (18') via unbalanced I/C's all the way to my crossover.... which might be limiting on the top-end frequency extension?... I don't know. I was hoping I could skip the Lehman and run TT to Fisher's phono, then out to the Line 3's input and take it from there...
Regardless of all this, that's an awful lot of I/C's..
Maybe I'm better off not trying phono into the main rig and just enjoying it into the Sonatas... I'm sure it will be very nice there....
