Hi all, over the past year or so, I have been putting together what I consider to be a very nice stereo system. My current list of kit includes:
-Rotel RCD-1072 cd player
-Rotel RC-1070 preamp
-Rotel RB-1080 power amp
-JMLab Cobalt 826S speakers
-Soundstyle XS105 rack
-Audioquest Bedrock biwire speaker cable
-Generic interconnects -these come later (will drop you a line one of these days Doug)
-Thor surgeshield A2
Now, my question is this: If I were to add a turntable, what should I be looking at -I can spend about $1000AU and am considering the Project 1 Xpression with speedbox and a decent MM cartridge (hear the Xpression is easy to set up -also helpful).
The other question... Is it worth me getting into vinyl? I have very little experience with Vinyl (am only 21) but am quite interested in this mechanical device that can be more musical than CD. I know, I should probably buy a cheapie to see... but that would be an unfair advantage to my CD player.
Anyhow... thoughts, suggestions, hints, experiences.... Thanks guys, Ben
