Putting together first stereo....


I'm a total newbie to home audio, so please excuse the ignorance. So, I spent the last two months auditioning different floor standing speakers and ended up really liking the Vienna Acoustic Beethoven Grands. In the demo room, they were being powered by McIntosh 302s.

I plan on connecting it to a Sonos Connect. My plan was to try to find th McIntosh TC47, since it has a DAC built in, and then maybe going with an older McIntosh amp, maybe a MC7200 to save a little cash. Any comments, suggestions, or thoughts would be helpful.

TIA

If you like the Beethoven Grands with the Mac 302 you better stick with that combination. You may not feel the same about the speakers with a different amp.

"Don't worry about the source" is bad advice. The source component is where it all begins. The sound will take on the character of the source no matter what amp and speakers you have.
