Description

My first dedicated 2-channel audio system. I think I have a couple nice pieces that I can build around.

Some upgrade thoughts:

-I'd like some more volume. While the 1050 has an OK sound, I just want more of it.

-cables. Not even sure where I would start with this.

    • Linn Espek w/ Kustone bases
    Bought these recently to build out my 2 channel audio system. I think they sound great for the amount of money I paid for them used.
    • OPPO DV-970HD
    I just love OPPO products. I used this as my main DVD player until I upgraded to Blu-ray and now it is a CD player/Hi-rez audio player in my two channel system.
    • NAD 533
    This is my Rega P2 clone. It is a decent little table that I can easily integrate into my system. I think I want to replace the platter for something a little more substantial than the MDF one currently on it.
    • Rega RB-250
    The famous little arm that could.
    • B&K Components PT-3
    So far, this has been a great preamp. I'm glad I tried this on the advice of some Audiogon members.
    • Rotel RB-1050
    I needed something that didn't break the bank and sounds decent. This fit the bill nicely.
    • Monoprice cables
    I went with cheap Monoprice cables just to get my system up and running. I figured there were other places in my system that could use upgrading before dropping cash on nice cables.
    • Microsoft Zune 80GB
    With my Zune, I'm not locked into the controlling world of Apple. The Zune is a fantastic piece of hardware.
    • Denon DL-160
    Love this so far.
    • PS Audio GCPH Phono Preamp
    I love that I can run this direct into my amp if I want to.
