    A Little Help?

    I'm about to go spend what to me is a lot of money on stereo equipment and I was wondering if anyone here might have some opinions.

    Right now I'm leaning towards buying a rotel 1080 amplifier and a pair of magnepan 1.6QR's. I'll be running an HK receiver as my pre-amp for now as I can't yet make the leap into a nicer model.

    Anyone have a feeling of what this combo might sound like? This will be my first leap into the audiophile realms.

    Have listened to this combo? If you did, did it put a big grin on your face? That is the most important factor. If you can, step up to the 1090 or one of their digital amps because the Maggies are 4 ohm and like power.

      I am planning on pulling the trigger on a new turntable at the end of this week that will do my new phono stage justice. No, not getting rid of my Clearaudio Sigma Wood Cartiridge, just the rest of the TT. I have been investigating turntable options for about a year, not really all that serious about...
