Advice please: I have an old Marantz amp SR-47 (RMS 40Watts pc at 8 ohm, DIN 8 ohm-42W, DIN 4 ohm - 53W). CD player=Marantz CD (a basic model). I have bought Sennheiser HD 650 headphones (top of the range). With the headphones the sound is very much better than with my very simple speakers (Jensen Challenger 1000). Interest= classical music Now I have been spending the last few weeks researching how to upgrade my system. The outcome of all my research is that I give up and don't know what to buy!! Terrible, but maybe it is the corrcet decision for now. HOWEVER, regarding new speakers.... I thought if I am getting very much better quality sound with my headphones, then why not go ahead and buy the good quality speakers NOW and enjoy them at the level of quality that is obviously restricted by their input (at least it might sound as good as through the headphones). So, if the forum thinks that this is not a bad tempoaray compromise, I was thinking of buying the MA RS6 speakers (6 ohm speakers). Any comments, advice ? P.S. I sure do appreciate this forum--- I've got so much help already in understanding the Hi Fi scene.
