oooooh. i've got about 30 dylan albums on cd but none on vinyl. i'm afraid i'm a bit of a hifi geek. What system have you got? I built quite a nice mid-range system a few months before I went to uni. As I went to uni (and didn't take it with me) it never got much use. I'm absolutely loving it now. |

Nice.
I've got a Rotel ra-02 amp, sony twin deck recordable cd (can't remember the model number), acoustic energy aegis evo 3 speakers.
Also have a denon tuner and sony minidisc deck but rarely get used now. Would like to get a power amp so I can bi-amp the speakers and also a new cd player as the sony records really nice and plays ok, but is a bit limited

rotels are good, used to have a rotel pre-amp. AE speakers also nice, tight bass and pretty good imaging when placed well. i just sold an arcam power amp (p75) which performed great, especially for midrange detail, you can get them on ebay for under £200. for bi-amping you'd need two though but a straight through setup of rotel (used as a pre) and then a power amp would sound good, although you can never improve sound quality by adding extra amps - only through better quality amps. I also used to have a Denon TU 200 or something until i switched to DAB. you can get a quality CD for little money depending what your budget is - if you do decide to upgrade it i'm happy to offer my experience if you want advice before buying.

not doubting their DJ qualities, i hear they're the best on the market, just think belt driven tables give better sound reproduction in a home environment, which is my case cos i couldn't DJ for shit if i tried!

Yeah not too fussed about the radio now, I can get DAB through my pc with the tv card I've got. The Rotel has a pre-out circuit which you can use as well as the integrated circuit, so I was hoping to pair it with a power amp and use the Rotel as the treble and the power amp as the bass. Probably not worth considering until I move out of home though. |
