I agree. That would all work well together. My only concern are those speakers in an "open large rectangle". The Klipsch will be clear as a bell, but with only 15" box and 6.5" woofer, I feel you might end up feeling like you're missing some meat. With your budget, I'd be apt to look at some floorstanding speakers and really fill out the sound, like KLH Model 5 or Wharfedale Linton or something with a bigger woofer.
Would Appreciate Advice Before I Buy
Greetings and thanks in advance for any and all assistance. I am re-entering the vinyl world in my 60s, now that I have enough time to give to that approach and a little bit of money to spend on components that will help me to enjoy the music I like.
I am only wanting to spend in the neighborhood of $2,000 - $4,000. I realize that's a relatively small outlay, but I also gather that there are good options at almost every price point. Here is what I am contemplating - I would welcome comments. Am I missing something? Will these components "play well" together?
My first vinyl purchase is a set of the Franklin Mint "Greatest Jazz Recordings..." in, well, mint condition that I was able to get very inexpensively at an estate sale this past week. I will probably start picking up some of the re-issued Elvis Costello soon as well.
What do you think? Thanks again.

- Schiit Ragnarok-2 integrated amplifier (fully-loaded)
- Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO turntable
- Klipsch RP-600M speakers
- Bose Quiet Comfort headphones (already own these and would use if I can)

I like your choices. You might/probably will upgrade your speakers after a while, so, I suggest you look on eBay, save some money now, make it easier to get most of their cost back if you move up. new, open box, used ... https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2553889.m570.l1313&_nkw=klipsch+RP-600M&a... |
It looks like you made a good choice. Many good reviews on the speakers! https://www.stereophile.com/content/klipsch-reference-premiere-rp-600m-loudspeaker Another! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGBE6sPyt8M And another! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apij3Y0A1RQ |
Are the speakers and amp a good match power/sensitivity/impedance wise? klipsch are bright I’m a Jazz fan and using Elac 2.0/6.2 set and a set of EPOS Epic 2 speakers- Just got Peachtree Nova 150 - unreal match I got lucky but did my homework call the amplifier manufacturer and ask about speakers compatibility |
