New Pre or Integrated for 2nd system, thoughts?


Looking to create a 2nd system inexpensively (max $500, new or used) in vacation home. Speakers are old but functional Thiel 1.2s, late 80s vintage NAD CDP and B&K ST 202. The B&K has 150 watts into 8 ohms but does not double down. The Thiels are a 4 ohm speaker which like high current. Pre has died. Not an absolute requirement but a remote would be nice. So the question is to go with a new Pre or Integrated? Would appreciate suggestions on which way to go and recommended gear. Thanks!

the musical fidelity a3 stuff is rock solid ,usually more expensive and should be, it is beefier and better built, the newer stuff, 640 cambridge is the best bargain on the planet and yes i have one and one for sale..dwhitt
