Hi,
I'm just discovering this forum and website, and love the info and the insights...
This being said, I am a newbie. I went from not having enough money to buy CDs, to not bothering as I had MP3s and other items. What I have today is a Mac, connected through an Airport express, and a small PC-type set of SONY speakers... An iPod, which I never really use, and an iPad, currently used as a remote for my Mac...
I listen to every kind of music, but felt lately quite limited in quality, when listening to classical (Dvorak, Janacek, Tchaikowski, Vivaldi,...), usually converted in FLAC.
With a budget of 750£, I'd like to get started... Two options I looked at:
- Start from my AEX, using the digital output, an amplifier or DAC + amplifier and new speakers. But there no idea of what to chose from.
- Log onto Sonos, with a bridge and a Sonos5, maybe later when richer going through the Connect + much better quality systems...
I would live to read what you think, for a little newbie
Thanks
