Hi
I'm trying to build my very first starter hifi system, after using a headphone-based system for years. I already have a NAD C521BEE CD player, so I guess all I need is an amplifier and a pair of speakers. As this is my first system, I would like to stay with the budget components which seem quite capable these days. Most of the time I'm listening to classic music and operas.
For the speakers I have my eyes on Tannoy F1 Custom and Wharfedale Diamond 9.1, which I plan to audit them in a local shop soon. But I'd also like to hear about any advice I can get here. Also I have almost no any idea which amplifier I should look for. Is Marantz PM-4001 a good match with the Tannoy or Wharfedale? I like the extra phono stage, and might consider adding a turntable. What about the newer PM6002? Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
