Mini monitors for vinyl....


Compiling a second system for vinyl playback...considering B&K st 140 with older Adcom preamp...at any rate...should i go for a forgiving monitor or more of a revealing nature...the system is looking like a "warm" one on paper...any thoughts? Thinking of Vandy 1bs as well...price range for monitors is 3-500 used....room is on the small side...

I've owned the ST-140, warm. I had it paired with an Adcom GFP-565, and I wouldn't characterize the Adcom as warm. Depending on cabling, I'd call it a bit lean-to-neutral sounding. You should have a complementary pairing there.

I second the recommendation of the Kestrel's. If you have to go with monitors, the Vienna Hayden's would work nicely.
