Bought a system without auditioning, thoughts?


Long story but I ended up buying a system without auditioning a single component and haven’t set it up, what are your thoughts? Technic SL 1210 GR, nagaoka mp-500, eversolo dmp-a6, pass labs xp 17, pass labs int-250, klipsch forte iv, Cardas clear Cygnus speaker cable, Cardas clear interconnects, Cardas clear Cygnus phono cable.  I know I don’t need the int-250 for the klipsch but got a great deal.

@jshira *G* H.o. on my part, but it doesn't seem like you selected by picking random names out of a hat... ;)  While waiting for the R.E. to clear, moving magic to occur (and the fairy dust that comes with that...), always a feat that's varied in treat...

...I'd stealth a minimum array in the 1st room that empties....yeah, not a fair test, but something to make 'moving muzic' and a place to gather the grit to carry on anon..(kiddy-proofed as poss, of course...)....

Always helped our efforts; last out, 1st in....just a temp(ting) suggestion...;)

...and happy listening in the new local... 👍😃

...spouse may/may not think you insane....

Lean heavy towards spouse prefs...

It appears that you rely on the Eversolo DMP A6 for streaming and digital-to-analog conversion. Its internal DAC performs only above the average and will likely leave much to be desired with a truly hi-fi system. It is recommended that you consider investing in an external DAC to match your system.  Without auditioning of course.
