Power Amp Question

I greatly appreciate all the valuable insights and suggestions.

I will think about adding a 200 watt power amp.

The phono preamp is a few days into the system.

There is a lot to think about.

+1 soix4. Look for a used pre and power amp. If your speakers are 92db sensitive you won't need 200wpc unless you have a truly large room or are a headbanger.

Yes, for me, buying a very good preamp was the mightiest game changer. The signal is so small and delicate...screw it up here and it won't matter much how good the amp is.

Buying a better amp is usually a modest upgrade. 

Want to make a big difference? Preamp and phono amp: get the very best you can afford.

OK I am confused. How does using separate amp or pre-amp or an integrated change the length of a speaker wire. Or did I miss the joke!
