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.

Once set up , just let it play ! I like to try to be non critical of any new component. I like to play FM or any source like TV through my system for a while , sort of like background music or noise. After a short period of letting MY ears acclimate to the new presentation of sound I will play some quality material as I tweak speaker placement. Then after a few nights of playing some great music , I get lost in the music and forget about the hardware. Hopefully you’ll love how it sounds after dialing in

As long as you can figure out how to plug it in you will love it and it will blow you away. The only significant improvements you might make down the line are subwoofers and a digital preamp like the upcoming DEQX Pre 4. 
 

I like Auditioning gear but I usually buy site unheard in situations when I know what I am getting by design and construction quality. In many instances I know where I am heading years in advance. 

Haha the long story was a divorce.  No one to justify anything to.  I am not looking for a significant other at this point so figured I would marry my music.
