Hi All -
Been reading through the forum for a while now and the level of information is just dazzling as is the numbers of components, potential setups, etc.... not sure I can still keep my mind sane over all over it..
But hey, giving it a try anyways. We just moved houses and sort of a reset moment is available now..
What I need to solution:
- want to have some proper music available in my office (7x5m)
- we have quite a CD collection, most of it ripped into iTunes but prefer to play from the disc
- need a turntable
- need to have proper sound in living room (challenging i think; sort of 20x5m, old town house). we also watch television & movies here. Currently have a sony DAV X10 home cinema thing but i don't like it at all
- ideally from a number of other rooms (kitchen, kids rooms, garden,..) i can pick up signal and stream music. quality can be a bit less
- support for streaming services (spotify, tidal or so)
I still have a couple of old JVC pieces at hand (bought them about 25 years ago with first monies available)
- cd player XL-V211 (seems to still function, sort of)
- AMP - RX-504VL (right channel blew up on me couple of weeks ago so... i guess thats one to retire). Still gives a lot better output then the sony stuff though
- a pair of memorex 204 speakers (not sure if they are good at all)
- and the DAV X-10
What i'm looking for is some guidance in terms of 'architecture' to build (i can further investigate then into actual components then - however, if you feel like suggesting not going to stop that :-) ). If at all there is some good way to phase the setup that would be good too, i prefer a modelar solution so i can invest in the right things that allow proper future evolutions too
many thanks for input upfront
