I currently have B&W 602S3's as my front HT speakers driven by a Pioneer VSX-94TXH. My intent was to incorporate a switch to allow me to shift their input from HT to analog. I plan on spending in the $1k range for a turntable and the same for a tube amp. I'm strategiaclly located about 1.5 hours from DC, Baltimore and Richmond :-( Not sure of any Hi-Fi dealers in those areas. Not knowing what it takes to get analog going those numbers can shift to the other side as needed. I don't want to cheap out and have a bad experience. I can remember listening to vinyl as a kid on a marantz system and I've been chasing that sound ever since...

I am not interested in making a lot of changes just what I need to do in order to satisfy my primal urges for vinyl. I don't quite understand your pre-amp suggestion.
