Here's my advice.....if you already have a system that plays CD's do that. All the music you want to listen to is on CD. Hire a teacher and take violin, flute, sax etc. lessons. When you know how music works, you'll appreciate those CD's even more. When I was doing my advanced degrees in music, I was shocked that so many of my profs. had low quality (in audiophile terms) little systems. Go to live concerts, Keep busy in your retirement.
Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening
I'm reeducating myself.... after years of no TT and focusing on just stereo listening.. I had a some early Klipsch Hersey’s and some GENESIS speakers pair with Yamaha receiver and low end turntable 30-40 years ago -- I can afford a higher end setup this days -- so what are thoughts on pairing a luxman l-550axII with Klipsch cornwalls?
I like the Herseys for music in the day.. cornwalls seem to be larger herseys but may well need audtion some of the tower types folks seem to tout..
I still thinking on TT -- but may get a VPI scout or prime -- thinking through the cartridge choices and other things is still a serious education -- recc?
music taster are varied -- jazz to singer vocalist miles davis - linda Ronstadt and a host of others for vocal musics and instruments- soft rock of the 70-80s- to some classical
thoughts -- looking to 15-20K for the refit for stereo listening - but could stretch some if I like the setup
