Upgrading what?


I am building a system little by little as money comes along. The problem with that is that all of the components start out being terrible and as I build it they get replaced. I have a wonderful Njoe Tjoeb cd player but I dont know what my next step is. I have been saving a bit of money and dont know weather it is a smart step to upgrade my amp first or to get new speakers. I want what is best in the long run for my system. The amp I am considering is the McCormack 125 and the speakers I am looking at are the GMA Europas. What do you Audiophiles out there think?

Thanks

I don't think there's a wrong way. First I would find out exactly what sound I am looking for. This can only be achieved from listening to different equipment. I don't care how good your front end is supposed to be. You can't make a Paradigm sound like a Martin Logan or a Magnepan sound like a Green Mountain Audio.It just doesn't work that way.Speakers make the largest impact in sound IME.Yes it can be changed or refined by a different front end to a degree. But not enough to fool someone into thinking you have a different pair of speakers.

Enjoy the Ride it is the Best Part!
