hey all, good forum idea! all this stuff i've read online can be really confusing.
I've been looking at an entry level hi-fi system...this is primarily to play records, not CDs...i'll get a CD player later...right now I want to spend right around $1000, not more..
Here's what I think I've decided on:
Rega P1 record player - $350
Epos ELS-3 monitor speakers - $329
Cambridge Audio Azur 340A integrated amp - $329*
*although it keeps saying that a phono in is "optional" so maybe i have to pay more...
These choices are based on reading online reviews, many in stereophile.com....
does this sound like a reasonably decent system for the money?
I'm upgrading from best buy type stuff I bought about 10 yrs ago...old Technics turntable (actually bought used and put new grado cheap cartridge ($60) on it)...JBL bookshelfs and Technics receiver surround sound.
thx for your help.
