Thanks for the advice. Think the wobble is probably normal (it's hardly noticeable compared to youtube videos). My list is down to the following now: -Arcam a65 plus -Onkyo 9030 -Pioneer A30 (can't find any reviews/much about this amp?) -Denon 720ae (possibly the 520, it's quite cheap, but...

Hi all, Asked a while ago for amplifier advice, but I now know which turntable & speakers I will be using. Got around £150-200 left for an amplifier. Have found a cheap arcam a65 plus, which i'm very tempted to try out. Was also looking at rotel sa-04, but they seem few and far between on...

I'm interested to know if people think the cambridge audio amps would work well with q acoustics 2020i?

Probably going to run a rega rp1, q acoustics 2020i and looking at an arcam a65+, very new to this, but are there any obvious concerns with this setup? Thank you all, Sam

like the look of the 3020i actually. as i'm starting out, if i could help it i'd rather spend £50 than £200 on an amp. it's quite easy to get carried away and go from spending £500 on a system to £900.

Thanks all. Looking at rotel ra-04se, marantz pm6003/4, arcam a65+ at the moment. seeing what i can find on ebay. Will take a look at the Onkyo, thank you. Sam

looking at http://www.whathifi.com/review/cambridge-audio-azur-340a-se/specs also tech specs say MM phono in - NO. does this mean i need to buy a phono preamp as well? it says integrated on manufacturer website, which i thought meant it had a built in preamp. am i getting confused between a...

Hi All, Have decided on rega rp1 as my starter turntable. Probably going to pair up with q acoustics 2020i speakers. Really have no idea about an amplifier though, had a look at a couple of Rotel RA-04/SE's on ebay, but not 100% sure this would be a good idea. Budget is probably £200 for amp...

Thinking of rega rp1 > ra-04se amplifier > q acoustics 2020i at the moment, any ideas?

Thanks all. So the Q Acoustics 2020i are not powered/active speakers? Looks like i'll need to start looking for an amp then. Budget was about £600 for the whole system really, which leaves me around £200 for the amp. Any ideas?

the link i posted seems to be saying if the speakers are active/powered i won't need an amp as such, is this not true?

Hi all, Setting up my first turntable system. Thinking of getting a rega rp1, rega fono mini a2d, q acoustics 2020i. Do i also need an amplifier for this, or can i run straight into the speakers? Reading here http://turntablelab.com/pages/beginners-guide-to-turntables it will work as long as...
