I agree, great for $1K. However, you can do much better on the TT for not much $$. Music Hall, Rega, older Thorens would fill the bill, altho not much point until you get the phono section fixed. If its a tube, I would recommend getting new old stock (NOS) tubes; actually if the unit is old, you may want to retube the whole thing. Post tube complement and I'm sure you will get lots of suggestions; be sure you indicate how much you have to spend.
First system-any thoughts?
I've had a sideline interest for a while, but could never justify the $$$. These components consist of 2nd hand items that were given to me or on permanent loan, or I purchased for a very low price.
NAD 5060 cd, B&O rx2, conrad johnson pv2ar pre-amp (with a bad buzz in the phono section), McIntosh 754 amp, running through newly purchased Monitor Audio silver 2.
I have about $1000 invested in the whole thing. It's all old but it sounds light years better than the Emerson boom box that I was using untill I could get all this stuff working together.
Any suggestions on what I could upgrade? I listen to all types of music.
Any tips on how I could fix that buzz?
Thanks for your expertise.
