Changes....need suggestions for next step.

Description

Had a system posted a while back, but many changes have made me start over. I have just gotten into vinyl as my wife (who would of thought) bought me the Pro-Ject 1-Expression turntable for Xmas.

I am looking for the next upgrade. Not sure where to go next, so any and all comments and suggestions would be welcome. I will post pics later.

I second the motion for a very good tubed integrated and nominate the Manley Stingray. Then replace the cdp/dac with a Blue Note Koala ($2k-new) or possibly the "near-vinyl sounding," non-oversampling dac'd Consonance CD 120 Linear. Wow, great choice on your wife's part with the turntable! --A truly great start, though! Cheers mate.
