audiolabs MPWR - £200 ART DJ Pre II - £40 I'm thinking of a passive pre-amp which can be found on ebay for around £60 for volume and switching Or, Marantz PM6005 ;-)

Is it feasible to expect to build a separates system that will sound as good as and integrated for the 300 quid (ish) budget? Of the pre amp and the power amp what will affect the sound the most? If I do build a good combo is it worth spending more than I did on the speakers? I'm just...

What about a separate power and pre amp actually? https://www.hifix.co.uk/audiolab-mpwr-power-amplifier?gclid=Cj0KEQjw2_23BRDb_qbvzK3X8M8BEiQAg87AF5sCfrQtGGGJ5HVtXSLl_7x5WcCN558-ftUXowgRXpoaAgXJ8P8HAQ

OK I've picked up some bits: A Phllips Type 22 GA 247/152 Turntable which is obviously very old but looks good so the Mrs is happy, I'll spruce it up and we shall see what it sounds like, if its terrible I'll sell it on. £15!!!! A Creek 4040, this is the original 1982 model with the Din...

Thanks JM some handy hints there. In terms of sound I like a fairly wide stage, detailed mids but also a well rounded bass sound for some of the more doomy metal/rock I listen to (I may be asking a bit much for a low budget I think). The room is 3.8m by 3.3m with a fairly high ceiling...

Hi all, I'm kind of new to all this HiFi stuff but I'm fairly techy and have an idea of what I want so please bear with me! So, the Mrs wanted to buy an all in one record player as she is a hipster, I have a fair few bits of vinyl that I haven't listened to for years and was quite happy with...
