Hi everyone. I know a lot about music and vinyl in particular, but very little about Hi-Fi systems and components. I have what I think is a pretty good setup, but have come across some interesting components at auction, so was looking for some advice. My current setup is as follows:
Bowers & Wilkins 704 S3 speakers
Rotel A14 MKII amplifier
Rega Planar 6 with the Ania Pro MC cartridge, with Rega Fono MC Phono Stage.
Now, I've come across the following three components:
Marantz Model 1250 Integrated Stereo Amplifier
Adcom GFP-750 Nelson Pass Preamp/Passive Controller GFP750 Preamplifier
Audio Research LS15 Tube Stereo Preamplifier
As I mentioned, I don't have much of a clue whether it would be worth investing in any of the above. The Marantz apparently sounds amazing and might be a good upgrade from my Rotel. The Adcom and Audio Research preamps I'm not even sure would be suitable with the Marantz and my speakers, or if they'd be compatible with my Planar 6.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Tommaso.
