Hello, New guy here and a novice at that. I recently returned to vinyl and am a kid again, just loving it. Broke my cherry with a impulsive purchase of B&W CM5 full surround with center and a Martin Logan sub. It's truly fine for my movie watching experiences and can remain with it. It's not fine for my vinyl spinning. So I've decided to create a separate system strictly for my vinyl and perhaps future streaming ( as I understand it's improving all the time ) I recently visited Pro-Musica in Chicago and those dudes are informed ( I know coming from me that's not saying much ) Listened to a smaller pair of Proac and they were lovely but when I pointed to a tower that wasn't set up he responded that they were his favorite all time speakers ( he's big into classical ) They did blow me away in a clean beautiful way, the clarity was superb. However he was also promoting a "Naim Audio" streaming device & amp in one called "Unity Star "
Any suggestions from those out there who know and may help me get it right the first time? I won't have the funds to correct any expensive errors. My music room is a space I built over my garage, it's 20x24 with a high pitched roof/ceiling ( about 13-14 feet at the top, think chalet )
Will the DR 30's be sufficient ( or should I save more money and wait to upgrade up from there? Does the Naim Audio piece I mentioned fall short in properly driving the DR30's or perhaps the next speaker up? ( I do like the streaming capabilities as well as the phono input and a USB input for an extensive enhanced digital library I intend on pulling from as well ) Plus I believe an additional input.
Thank you in advance for your opinions on how best to spend my money. ( BTW, I sold my beloved Triumph TR6 ( if anyone knows what that is ) for other reasons but mainly to bring beautiful music into my new garage room. Also, should I consider used and if so how do I know it's not used and perhaps abused? Thanks a ton.
