I'm looking to setup a Hi-Fi based around my PC since most of my music is present in the form of high bitrate Mp3s on my computer. Based on what i've read on this and other forums, this is the current selection of components that i'm looking at:
Squeezebox duet
Beresford 7510 DAC
Marantz PM6002 Amp
Monitor Audio BR2 speakers
Since this would be my first custom assembled separates system, i'm not very comfortable with the technical jargon used on these forums. I've arrived at this list based on my research online. In addition i'm trying to keep the entire system at around the 750 quid mark.
I'm also still thinking about the Beresford DAC. I've been to several forums where reviews have ranged from extremely good to extremely bad. If someone has used this DAC, esp with a similar setup, please let me know how it fits in.
I'm also looking for comments on how this system would potentially fit in together. Lastly could someone please give me a clue about the kind of cables i need to look in for this system.
Since this is going to be my first system, i have a lot of questions... hope to get some helpful advice...
